裂纹面分布加载裂尖SIFs分析的广义参数Williams单元北大核心CSCD

带裂缝服役是工程结构的常态,由于流体侵入到裂缝内部,裂纹面直接受荷,使得裂缝进一步扩展,甚者影响结构的安全性.广义参数Williams单元(简记W单元)在分析断裂问题中,利用Williams级数建立裂尖奇异区的位移场,通过求解广义刚度方程可直接获得应力强度因子(stress intensity factors,SIFs),具有高精高效性;但W单元需满足奇异区内裂纹面自由的边界条件,故在分析裂纹面加载的问题中受限.该文基于SIFs互等,在等效奇异区范围中,将裂纹面的荷载等效为奇异区外围边界裂纹面上的集中力,避免奇异区内裂纹面受荷,故采用W单元即可简便计算.算例分析表明:等效奇异区尺寸取裂纹长度的1/20,等效荷载系数P建议取2.0,W单元计算精度均满足1%的误差限,证明该文在奇异区裂纹面受荷等效处理方法上具有合理性、通用性,克服了W单元在分析裂纹面加载问题的局限性.

Williams Elements With Generalized Degrees of Freedom for Crack Tip SIFs Analysis Under Crack Surface Distributed Loading

Service with cracks is the normal state of engineering structures. Due to the fluid invading into the crack, the crack surface is loaded directly, which makes the crack further expand, and even affects the safety of the structure. In the analysis of fracture problems, according to the Williams element with generalized degrees of freedom (W element), the Williams series was used to establish the displacement field of the singular zone around the crack tip, and the stress intensity factors (SIFs) can be directly obtained by solving the generalized stiffness equation with high precision and high efficiency. However, the W element needs to satisfy the free boundary condition of the crack surface in the singular zone, so it is limited in the analysis of crack surface loading. Based on the SIFs reciprocity, the loading on the crack surface is equivalent to the concentrated force on the crack surface at the periphery of the equivalent singular zone, so the loading on the crack surface in the singular zone can be avoided, and the W element can be easily used for calculation. The numerical examples show that, the size of the equivalent singular zone is 1/20 of the crack length, the suggested equivalent load coefficient P is 2.0, and the calculation accuracy of the W element meets the error limit of 1%. The equivalent treatment method for the analysis of crack surface loading in the singular zone is reasonable and universal, and overcomes the limitation on the W element in analysis of the loading problem on crack surface.
