A theoretical model is established in order to analyze the stress state and estimate the connecting strength of the iron-based shape memory alloy pipe-connector. The effect of the temperature on the connecting strength is investigated using this model. The results show that the enclasp force of pipe joint P and maximal stresses of pipe and pipe joint ( , ) decreases linearly as increasing temperature. P and ( , ) decrease as increasing the thickness of the pipe joint, the decrease of is less than that of . Therefore, the thickness of the pipe joint is small as much as possible in order to enhance the enclaspe force.

Shape memory alloy (SMA) as an effective alternative to steel has received much attention. The constitutive model of SMA has raped developed for nearly 10 years, such as Boyd and Lagoudas model, Auricchio model, etc. However, a number of constitutive models were more complex, and not easily applied to engineering. In order to study SMA concrete pullout test using numerical simulation software, the tensile property of superelastic SMA was studied in this paper, different units (SOLID185 and LINK8) were simulated at the same time. Through the comparative analysis of results of different constitutive models, an easier used constitutive model of SMA was obtained. Combining with the numerical case, it shows that link8 is more convenient and accurate to simulates SMA.

Abstract Aiming at the leakage phenomenon of pipeline system due to corrosion and other reasons, a split type iron-based shape memory alloy pipe joint based on the button bond connection was designed for repair. This split-type pipe joint can be used for quick in-situ maintenance of pipelines without cutting off pipelines or stopping transmission without pressure relief. It is especially suitable for intensive pipeline maintenance and online emergency maintenance. In order to study the connection performance of the split iron-based shape memory alloy pipe joint, this paper took the Fe17Mn4Si10Cr4Ni alloy pipe joint as the research object, and carried out pressure sealing and pull-out experiments respectively on the integral pipe joint and the split pipe joint which had not been carried out and had been subjected to one heat and mechanical training. The results showed that, compared with the integral pipe joint, the pressure seal value of the split pipe joint decreased by 40% to 20MPa and the pulling force decreased by 48.9% without heat-mechanical training. However, after 1 time of thermal-mechanical training, the pressure sealing value of the split-type pipe joint decreased by 12.5% to 32MPa and the pulling force decreased by 21.2% compared with the integral pipe joint. It can be seen that thermal-mechanical training can significantly improve the joint performance of split pipe joints, and the split pipe joint can meet the requirements of medium and low pressure pipeline connection and maintenance.

In this article, we propose a finite element numerical tool adapted to a Fe-based shape memory alloy structural analysis, based on a developed constitutive model that describes the effect of phase transformation, plastic sliding, and their interactions on the thermomechanical behavior. This model was derived from an assumed expression of the Gibbs free energy taking into account nonlinear interaction quantities related to inter- and intragranular incompatibilities as well as mechanical and chemical quantities. Two scalar internal variables were considered to describe the phase transformation and plastic sliding effects. The hysteretic and specific behavior patterns of Fe-based shape memory alloy during reverse transformation were studied by assuming a dissipation expression. The proposed model effectively describes the complex thermomechanical loading paths. The numerical tool derived from the implicit resolution of the nonlinear partial derivative constitutive equations was implemented into the Abaqus® finite element code via the User MATerial (UMAT) subroutine. After tests to verify the model for homogeneous and heterogeneous thermomechanical loadings, an example of Fe-based shape memory alloy application was studied, which corresponds to a tightening system made up of fishplates for crane rails. The results we obtained were compared to experimental ones.
