Abstract: | An experimental-numerical hybrid method for the stress separation in photoelasticity is proposed in this study. In the proposed
method, boundary conditions for a local finite element model, that is, tractions along boundaries are inversely determined
from photoelastic fringes. Two algorithms are proposed for determining the boundary condition. One is a linear algorithm in
which the tractions are obtained by the method of linear least-squares from both principal stress difference and principal
direction. Another is the nonlinear algorithm in which the tractions are determined only from the principal stress difference.
After determining the boundary conditions for the local finite element model, the stresses can be obtained by finite element
direct analysis. The effectiveness is demonstrated by applying the proposed method to a perforated plate under tension and
contact problems. Results show that the boundary conditions of the local finite element model can be determined from the photoelastic
fringes and then the individual stresses can be obtained by the proposed method. Furthermore, the stresses can be evaluated
even if the boundary condition is complicated such as at the contact surface. It is expected that the proposed method can
be powerful tool for stress analysis. |
