Graded Approach: Assess Material Properties § The graded approach starts with knowing material properties well enough to proceed § Yield criteria are the starting points, but need to also know if material is ‘brittle’ in operation § If KIc is under 50 MPa-m 1/2 material may be fracture dominated § If Material undergoes Ductile-Brittle Transition, assess above § Do not treat weldments here—use B&PVC Div. II § Ratio of Yield to Ultimate, ductility below some threshold, are old ways of assessing brittleness/toughness, KIc should be used. § Charpy is prevalent in weld studies, but is a relative measure—cannot be tied to actual toughness in a universal way, but maybe required by code § Most Stainless Steels have KIc greater than 120 MPa-m 1/2 § Can directly use simple yield criteria § Should look into the more exotic materials like Nitronic… § Aluminum and Iron have KIc less than 30 MPa-m 1/2 § Can say already that components with these materials need LEFM analysis logo area E Anderssen 3
Why low KIc is important to know… Failure Assessment Diagram § The Load Point is the ratio of applied load to critical load § The KIc of SS is ~5 X higher than Aluminum § For a design with the same FOS against yield, the Al structure is near fracture limit § OTOH FOS for SS of even 2 is likely safe for similar… § Load Factor is L/L’ (ratio of distance of load point to failure envelope)—like factor of safety 7075 316 L logo area FAD allows assessing both yield and fracture in one diagram FOS = 3 E Anderssen 4
Excerpt BS 7910: 2013+A 1: 2015 Decreasing margin Less Expert Yield Criteria More Expert Advanced Analysis Fracture Analysis Always ends in a report More complete Material properties logo area E Anderssen 5
Presently think 3 levels of analysis works… § For simple yield (Von-Mises or other energy method), FOS of 3 for peak stress (even singularity) is proposed § The ‘Advanced Analysis’ is the next level includes: § ‘linearizing stress’ to assess if intersection is below yield (using same model) § Running sub-model of high stress region § Addition of mitigating features (fillets, chamfers, etc) § Still Aim for FOS = 3 § May need to addenda to the ‘Advanced Analysis’ level § Consider parts we specifically load to FOS = 2 or higher, like Axial Rods, etc § Some parts may not matter if they ‘fail’… Needs an ‘advanced’ engineering note explaining why that’s so… logo area E Anderssen 6
Linearized Stress § Uses extracted stress distribution near peak loads or cracks to predict representative ‘net section’ loads § Can be used to justify why a singularity or stress concentration may yield locally, but not progress to net section § Need to formalize how we use this in design—starting work now logo area E Anderssen 7
Failure Criteria § Consider failure at 0. 2% offset, use A-basis properties (95% confidence limit for test data) § This is already quite conservative § Design against yield, not ultimate § For metals, prefer Von-Mises § Tresca or Max Principle (stress or strain) often used for brittle materials, but plan to use LEFM for these § Distortion energy methods are most common and propose to use § Don’t have any materials that respond to hydrostatic pressure (unless Nb 3 Sn does…) § Similar methods (Tsai-Hill) exist for laminates § These are against mixed mode failure considering failure criterial for both fiber and matrix § LEFM will be used for brittle materials § Will not take benefit of elasto-plastic criteria (less conservative) logo area E Anderssen 8
Loads need to be defined… DE FI NE LO AD CA SE S an d DE FI NI TI ON S Need to do this—is part of graded approach… logo area E Anderssen 9
Factor of Safety vs Load Likelihood… § One time loads, e. g. during pre-loading that are well defined and true peaks can have different assessment thresholds than static/operational loads § Might consider Load Factor of 1. 1 for preload, but require 1. 5 for operational loads § FOS of 3 is for static, operational loads § What should we accept, or how should we grade against fault or other overload conditions § Similar discussion for known cases of highly loaded SS structures (Axial Rods) logo area E Anderssen 10
Mitigation Strategies § Peak stresses are usually near singularities § Addition of design features can reduce peak stress § May not need to… § Need to formalize notion of plastic truncation or load redistribution § We know from experience that some of these don’t matter—need to explain why formally § Will likely see how this works by evaluating actual parts and documenting § Can likely find common thread/method after some test case analyses. logo area E Anderssen 11
