The simulation of the stress field of welded joint containing discontinuity No 1014

This paper contains the results simulation and linear elastic fracture mechanic (LEFM) calculation of the welded joint contains it discontinuity 1014. The model base material C-Mn non-alloy steel S235JRG2 according to EN 10025-2 and consumable GMAW wire electrode G3Si1 according to EN ISO 14341 was prepared. Due to stress singularity effect located at the tip of the crack, the Huber-Mises-Hencky (H-M-H) hypothesis cannot be used, so that the stress intensity factor (KI) and fracture toughness (KIC) was applied. The LEFM analysis showed the range where the existence of crack can be acceptable. Based on well-known LEFM issue the verification of simulation program was performed. The stress intensity factor (KI) values was obtained from FEM simulation process.

Przedmiotem artykułu była prezentacja pola naprężenia złącza spawanego zawierającego niezgodność spawalniczą 1014 (pęknięcie podłużne w materiale podstawowym równoległe do osi spoiny) obliczonego za pomocą symulacji MES oraz mechaniki pękania.
