Elastic Perfectly Plastic

In AIRBUS, most of the complex shaped titanium fairing parts of pylon and air inlets are produced by superplastic forming (SPF). These parts are cooled down after forming to ease their extraction and increase the production rate, but AIRBUS wastes a lot of time to go back over the geometric defects generated by the cooling step. This paper investigates the simulations of the SPF, cooling and clipping operations of a part on Abaqus® Finite element software. The different steps of the global process impact the final distortions. SPF impacts the thickness and the microstructure/behavior of material, cooling impacts also the microstructure/behavior of material and promotes distortions through thermal stresses and finally, clipping relaxes the residual stresses of the cut part. An elastic-viscoplastic power law is used to model material behavior during SPF and a temperature dependent elastic perfectly plastic model for the cooling and clipping operations.

Elastic Perfectly Plastic

Loading-unloading behavior of a deformable sphere with a rigid flat under full stick contact condition is investigated for varying strain hardening. The study considers various tangent modulus using the finite element software ANSYS. Both the bilinear kinematic hardening and isotropic hardening models are considered. Numerical simulation reveals the qualitative similarity between kinematic and isotropic hardening regarding the variation of interfacial parameters during loading-unloading for various tangent modulus. It is found that the material with kinematic hardening dissipates more energy than the material with isotropic hardening during unloading. However for elastic perfectly plastic material, the loading-unloading behavior is insensitive to hardening model.

Equations are given for the stress rates in solid cylinders subject to transient temperature distributions, based on the assumption of an elastic, perfectly plastic material obeying a von Mises temperature-dependent yield condition. A numerical procedure for integrating the equations is developed and applied to a temperature distribution approximating a phase transformation and to a quenched cylinder. The effect of various factors on the residual stresses is noted.

This investigation is aimed at the modeling of both the fabrication process and the reliability of press-fit interconnections on moulded interconnect devices (MID). These are multifunctional three-dimensional substrates, produced by thermoplastic injection moulding for large-series applications. The assembly process and subsequently the durability of press-fit interconnections has been modeled and proved with a finite element software. Especially, a simulation tool for process optimizations was created and applied. In order to obtain realistic results, a creep model for the investigated base material, a liquid-crystal polymer (LCP), was generated and verified by experiments. Required friction coefficients between metal pin and base material were determined by adapting simulations and experiments. Retention forces of pins pressed into substrate holes during as well after the assembly process, and after temperature loads were predicted by simulations. Additionally, the decreasing extraction forces over time due to creep in the thermoplastic base material have been predicted for different storage temperatures as well with finite element analyses. Following, the numerical results of the process and reliability modeling were verified by experiments. It is concluded that the behavior of the mechanical contact of the pin-substrate system, can be suitably described time- and temperature-dependent.

Elastic Perfectly Plastic

The present paper, describes a transient translating elasto-plastic thermo-mechanical finite element model to study 2-D frictional rolling contact. Frictional two-dimensional contact is simulated by repeatedly translating a non-uniform thermo-mechanical distribution across the surface of an elasto-plastic half space. The half space is represented by a two dimensional finite element mesh with appropriate boundaries. Calculations are for an elastic-perfectly plastic material and the selected thermo-physical properties are assumed to be temperature independent. The paper presents temperature variations, stress and plastic strain distributions and deformations. Residual tensile stresses are observed. The magnitude and depth of these stresses depends on 1) the temperature gradients and 2) the magnitudes of the normal and tangential tractions.

Shakedown Limit

A simplified technique for determining the shakedown limit load of a structure employing an elastic-perfectly-plastic material behavior was previously developed and successfully applied to a long radius 90-degree pipe bend. The pipe bend is subjected to constant internal pressure and cyclic bending. The cyclic bending includes three different loading patterns namely; in-plane closing, in-plane opening, and out-of-plane bending moment loadings. The simplified technique utilizes the finite element method and employs small displacement formulation to determine the shakedown limit load without performing lengthy time consuming full cyclic loading finite element simulations or conventional iterative elastic techniques. In the present paper, the simplified technique is further modified to handle structures employing elastic-plastic material behavior following the kinematic hardening rule. The shakedown limit load is determined through the calculation of residual stresses developed within the pipe bend structure accounting for the back stresses, determined from the kinematic hardening shift tensor, responsible for the translation of the yield surface. The outcomes of the simplified technique showed very good correlation with the results of full elastic-plastic cyclic loading finite element simulations. The shakedown limit moments output by the simplified technique are used to generate shakedown diagrams of the pipe bend for a spectrum of constant internal pressure magnitudes. The generated shakedown diagrams are compared with the ones previously generated employing an elastic-perfectly-plastic material behavior. These indicated conservative shakedown limit moments compared to the ones employing the kinematic hardening rule.

Limit loads for a thick-walled cylinder with an internal or external fully circumferential surface crack under pure axial load are derived on the basis of the von Mises yield criterion. The solutions reproduce the existing thin-walled solution when the ratio between the cylinder wall thickness and the inside radius tends to zero. The solutions are compared with published finite element limit load results for an elastic–perfectly plastic material. The comparison shows that the theoretical solutions are conservative and very close to the finite element data.

Primary Load

The use of “simplified” (reference stress) analysis methods is discussed and illustrated for primary load high temperature design. Elastic methods are the basis of the ASME Section III, Subsection NH primary load design procedure. There are practical drawbacks with this current NH approach, particularly for complex geometries and temperature gradients. The paper describes an approach which addresses these difficulties through the use of temperature-dependent elastic, perfectly-plastic analysis. Traditionally difficulties associated with discontinuity stresses, inelastic strain concentrations and multiaxiality are addressed. A procedure is identified to provide insight into how this approach could be implemented. Though preliminary in nature, it is intended to provide a basis for further development and eventual Code adaptation.

Automotive rubber products are subjected to large deformations during working conditions, they often contact with other parts and they show highly nonlinear material behavior. Using finite element software for complex analysis of rubber parts can be a good way, although it has to contain special modules. Different types of rubber materials require the curve fitting possibility and the wide range choice of the material models. It is also important to be able to describe the viscoelastic property and the hysteresis. The remeshing possibility can be a useful tool for large deformation and the working circumstances require the contact and self contact ability as well. This article compares some types of the finite element software available on the market based on the above mentioned features.

Elastic Perfectly Plastic

Capabilities for the analysis of combined viscous and plastic behavior have been added to an existing finite element computer program for two-dimensional elastic-plastic calculations. This program (PAPSTB) has been formulated for elastic-plastic stress and deformation analyses of two-dimensional and axisymmetric structures. It has the ability to model large strains and large deformations of elastic-perfectly plastic, multi-linear hardening, or power-hardening materials. The program is based on incremental plasticity theory with a von Mises yield criterion. Time dependent behavior has been introduced into the PAPSTB program by adding a viscous strain increment to the elastic and plastic strain increment to form the total strain increment. The viscous calculations presently employ a power-law relationship between the viscous strain rate and the effective stress. The finite element code can be easily modified to handle more complex viscous models. The Newmark method for time integration is used, i.e., an input parameter is included which enables the user to vary the time domain approximation between forward (explicit) and backward (implicit) difference. Automatic time stepping is used to provide for stability in the viscous calculations. It is controlled by an input parameter related to the ratio of the current viscous strain increment to the total strain. The viscoplastic capabilities of the PAPSTB program are verified using the axisymmetric problem of an internally pressurized, thick-walled cylinder. The transient viscoplastic case is analyzed to demonstrate that the elastic-perfectly plastic solution is obtained as a steady-state condition is approached. The influence of varying the time integration parameter for transient viscoplastic calculations is demonstrated. In addition, the effects of time step on solution accuracy are investigated by means of the automatic time stepping algorithm in the program. The approach is then applied to a simple forging problem of cylinder upsetting.

Casing design is one of the most important parts of the well planning in the oil and gas industry. Various factors affecting the casing material needs to be considered by the drilling engineers. Wells partaking in thermal oil recovery processes undergo extreme temperature variation and this induces high thermal stresses in the casings. Therefore, forecasting the material behavior and checking for failure mechanisms becomes highly important. This paper uses Finite Element Methods to analyze the behavior two of the frequently used materials for casing - J55 and L80 steels. Modeling the casing and application of boundary conditions are performed through Ansys Workbench. Effect of steam injection pressure and temperature on the materials is presented in this work, indicating the possibilities of failure during heating cycle. The change in diameter of the casing body due to axial restriction is also presented. This paper aims to draw special attention towards the casing design in high temperature conditions of the well.
