Prediction of Crack Initiation Direction for Inclined Crack Under Biaxial Loading by Finite Element Method
This paper presents a simple method based on strain energy density criterion to study the crack initiation angle by finite element method under biaxial loading condition. The crack surface relative displacement method is used to eliminate the calculation of the stress intensity factors which are normally required. The analysis is performed using higher order four node quadrilateral element. The...
متن کاملModelling Mode I Crack Initiation in Composites under Fatigue Loading Using Interface Elements
Modelling quasi-static crack growth with interface elements is a widely accepted technique [1-2]. Interface elements are inserted into the finite element mesh along possible crack paths. The interface elements are characterised by a traction-displacement curve. When a specific maximum stress is reached, the interface element undergoes a softening process until the critical fracture energy has b...
متن کاملStrip yield modelling of fatigue crack under variable amplitude loading
The results from ‘strip yield’ approach of the FASTRAN type models of plasticity induced crack closure effects of fatigue cracks subjected to variable amplitude loadings are presented. The strip yield results are compared with authors’ finite element (FE) and experimental results. It has been observed that the strip yield model is seen to be fundamentally limited by choice of α (constraint fact...
متن کاملFatigue crack initiation life prediction of railroad wheels
A new multiaxial high-cycle fatigue initiation life prediction model for railroad wheels is proposed in this paper. A general fatigue damage analysis methodology for complex mechanical components is developed and applied to the wheel/rail rolling contact fatigue problem. A 3-D elasto-plastic finite element model is used for stress analysis. A submodeling technique is used to achieve both comput...
متن کاملPrediction of Fatigue Life and Crack Path in Generic 2d Structural Components under Complex Loading
A reliable and cost effective two-phase methodology is proposed to predict crack propagation in generic two-dimensional structural components under complex fatigue loading. First, the fatigue crack path and its stress intensity factors are calculated in a specialized finite element software, using small crack increments. At each crack propagation step, the mesh is automatically redefined based ...
