Local Material Properties

The paper presents a methodology for the lifetime assessment of welded polymer pipes. A fracture mechanics analysis of a butt-welded joint is performed by simulating radial crack growth in the nonhomogenous region of the pipe weld. It was found that the presence of material nonhomogeneity in the pipe weld caused by the welding procedure leads to an increase in the stress intensity factor of the radial crack and changes the usual failure mode of the pipe system. This can lead to a significant reduction in the lifetime of the pipe system.

Local Material Properties

We propose a finite element methodology to consider local material properties for large cast iron components in shape optimization. We found that considering local strength instead of uniform strength within shape optimization brings to different results in terms of safety-cost balance for the same component. It is well known that local mechanical properties of large cast iron components are defined by their microstructure and defects, which locally affect the strength of the components. Considering or not local mechanical properties can dramatically change a component reliability evaluation during its design. Since a typical industrial aim for shape optimization is trying to get the optimal solution in terms of component quality and cost, considering local material properties is even more important than in traditional design process where no optimization techniques are used. We compute solidification process parameters via finite element solidification analysis, and then we exploit experimental correlation between these parameters and ultimate tensile strength to evaluate the local reliability of the finished component under its static loading conditions. We believe that this methodology represents an opportunity to better design casting components when mechanical properties are deeply affected by their production process as described in the provided examples. In these examples, we wanted to minimize casting cost constrained by a target reliability and we get component cost reduction by considering local material properties. Future research will address the problem of using dedicated casting simulation software instead of general purpose finite element analysis software to compute solidification analysis and then introducing fatigue analysis and correlation between fatigue material properties and casting process output variables.

The advantages of low heat joining techniques, such as low distortion and little influence on the local material properties due to the low introduced amount of heat, shall be made usable for the manufacture of high strength structures by increasing the process reliability. The dependency between the parameters of the joining process, the seam geometry, the type of solder, the load type und the fatigue life especially of soldered structure with local strengthening shall be examined to allow a calculative estimation of the part’s life.

Local Material Properties

In order to shorten the design process of a multi-chambered profile, it is important to integrate the Technological Findings of the production and the evaluation of the manufactured product in a structured and systematic way, providing mathematical optimization. The development of profiles exposed to cyclic mechanical loading has to take into consideration their fatigue properties. This paper proposes a classification structure of the existing Technological Findings of Linear Flow Splitting and the continuous manufacturing line. The classification is realized by an ontology, modeling the manufacturing processes, machines, the geometry of the semi-finished product, sub-processes, engaged machine components and specific conditions for the employed material. A profile manufactured by linear flow splitting is subject to severe changes of local material properties. This affects the fatigue properties of the profile. The paper focuses on preparing the integration of these fatigue properties in a simplified approach into the mathematical optimization. The approach is developed by modeling examples of profiles with different material properties by methods of mathematical optimization. The examples are applied to a numerical fatigue evaluation. Results and conclusions drawn of this analysis are incorporated in the ontology as data and rules, serving as an input for the optimization.
