  1. 1. Computational weld mechanics : Towards simplified and cost effective FE simulations

    Author : Ayjwat Awais Bhatti; Zuheir Barsoum; Lennart Josefson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : It is the demand of the world’s ever increasing energy crisis to reduce fuel consumption wherever possible. One way of meeting this demand is by reducing the weight of a structure by replacing thick plates of low strength steel with thin plates of high strength steel in the structure. READ MORE

  2. 2. Thermo-Mechanical-Metallurgical Modelling of Pearlitic Steels and Railhead Repair Welding

    Author : Björn Andersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Pearlitic steels; Railhead repair; Welding simulations; Phase transformations; Cyclic plasticity; Finite element analysis; Homogenisation;

    Abstract : The efficiency of rail transport is attributed to low rolling resistance, which comes at the cost of high contact pressures between rail and wheel. Consequently, both the rail and wheel can be susceptible to fatigue crack initiation and propagation due to the resulting high stresses and large number of load cycles in service. READ MORE

  3. 3. Simulation of additive manufacturing using a mechanism based plasticity model

    Author : Andreas Malmelöv; Andreas Lundbäck; Mathias Wallin; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Residual stress; Material model; Alloy 625; Alloy 718; deformations; Finite Element Method; synchrotron X-ray diffraction; Solid Mechanics; Hållfasthetslära;

    Abstract : This thesis presents finite element (FE) simulations of additive manufacturing (AM) and physically based material modeling of alloy 625 and alloy 718. In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in AM and there has been a dramatic increase in publications in the field. READ MORE

  4. 4. Microstructure model for Ti-6Al-4V used in simulation of additive manufacturing

    Author : Corinne Charles Murgau; Lars-Erik Lindgren; Niklas Järvstråt; Robert Pederson; Sören Sjöström; Högskolan Väst; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Titanium alloy; Ti-6Al-4V; Welding; Metal deposition; Additive manufacturing; Wire feed; Finite Element Method; Microstructure model; Johnson-Mehl-Avrami- Kolmogorov; Thermally driven; Production Technology; Produktionsteknik; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik; Material Mechanics;

    Abstract : This thesis is devoted to microstructure modelling of Ti-6Al-4V. The microstructure and the mechanical properties of titanium alloys are highly dependent on the temperature history experienced by the material. The developed microstructure model accounts for thermaldriving forces and is applicable for general temperature histories. READ MORE

  5. 5. Computational weld mechanics - Increased accuracy in fatigue assessment, distortion and residual stress analysis

    Author : Jinchao Zhu; Zuheir Barsoum; Mansoor Khurshid; Rami Mansour; Heikki Remes; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Computational weld mechanics; fatigue assessment; weld distortion; residual stress; Farkostteknik; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis work is concerned with the mechanical response of welded steel structures, which are distortions, residual stresses, and fatigue. The accuracy of fatigue assessment, distortion and residual stress analysis using Computational weld mechanics (CWM) is focused. READ MORE
