Stress States

This paper deals with the evaluation of time response analyses of typical aerospace metallic structures. Attention is focussed on detailed stress state distributions over time by using the Carrera Unified Formulation (CUF) for modeling thin-walled reinforced shell structures. In detail, the already established component-wise (CW) approach is extended to dynamic time response by mode superposition and Newmark direct integration scheme. CW is a CUF-based modeling technique which allows to model multi-component structures by using the same refined finite element for each structural component, e.g. stringers, panels, ribs. Component coupling is realized by imposing displacement continuity without the need of mathematical artifices in the CW approach, so the stress state is consistent in the entire structural domain. The numerical results discussed include thin-walled open and closed section beams, wing boxes and a benchmark wing subjected to gust loading. They show that the proposed modeling technique is effective. In particular, as CW provides reach modal bases, mode superposition can be significantly efficient, even in the case of complex stress states.

A new stress-state dependent cohesive zone model for thin walled structures is proposed. The model incorporates the stress-state explicitly within the traction-separation law using basic elasticity-plasticity equations combined with a model parameter. The numerical implementation of the model is able to reproduce ductile fracture observed in a pre-cracked C(T) specimen as well as a notched plate specimen of the same material.

Residual Stresses And Strains

The article presents an innovative method of reducing welding distortions of thin-walled structures by introducing structural and technological changes. The accuracy of the method was demonstrated on the example of welding the stub pipes to the outer surface of a thin-walled tank with large dimensions, made of steel 1.4301 with a wall thickness of 1.5 × 10−3 (m). During traditional Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW), distortions of the base are formed, the flatness deviation of which was 11.9 × 10−3 (m) and exceeded the permissible standards. As a result of structural and technological changes, not only does the joint stiffness increase, but also a favorable stress state is introduced in the flange, which reduces the local welding stresses. Numerical models were developed using the finite element method (FEM), which were used to analyze the residual stresses and strains pre-welding, in extruded flanges, in transient, and post-welding. The results of the calculations for various flanges heights show that there is a limit height h = 9.2 × 10−3 (m), above which flange cracks during extrusion. A function for calculating the flange height was developed due to the required stress state. The results of numerical calculations were verified experimentally on a designed and built test stand for extrusion the flange. The results of experimental research confirmed the results of numerical simulations. For further tests, bases with a flange h = 6 × 10−3 (m) were used, to which a stub pipe was welded using the GTAW method. After the welding process, the distortion of the base was measured with the ATOS III scanner (GOM a Zeiss company, Oberkochen, Germany). It has been shown that the developed methodology is correct, and the introduced structural and technological changes result in a favorable reduction of welding stresses and a reduction in the flatness deviation of the base in the welded joint to 0.39 × 10−3 (m), which meets the requirements of the standards.

The fracture mechanical behaviour of thin-walled structures with cracks is highly significant for structural strength design, safety and reliability analysis, and defect evaluation. In this study, the effects of various factors on the fracture parameters, crack initiation angles and plastic zones of thin-walled cylindrical shells with cracks are investigated. First, based on the J-integral and displacement extrapolation methods, the stress intensity factors of thin-walled cylindrical shells with circumferential cracks and compound cracks are studied using linear elastic fracture mechanics, respectively. Second, based on the theory of maximum circumferential tensile stress of compound cracks, the number of singular elements at a crack tip is varied to determine the node of the element corresponding to the maximum circumferential tensile stress, and the initiation angle for a compound crack is predicted. Third, based on the J-integral theory, the size of the plastic zone and J-integral of a thin-walled cylindrical shell with a circumferential crack are analysed, using elastic-plastic fracture mechanics. The results show that the stress in front of a crack tip does not increase after reaching the yield strength and enters the stage of plastic development, and the predicted initiation angle of an oblique crack mainly depends on its original inclination angle. The conclusions have theoretical and engineering significance for the selection of the fracture criteria and determination of the failure modes of thin-walled structures with cracks.
