[0001] This invention relates to the fields of fracture mechanics of metallic materials and metal structure design technology, and in particular to a fracture-resistant design method for metal structures. Background Technology

[0002] Metallic materials are fundamental to modern civilization. Due to increasing pressure on resources, energy, and the environment, both defense and civilian industries urgently need advanced metallic materials with high strength, high toughness, and resistance to extreme service conditions. In industrial production, metal pipes and sheet metal structures need to be cut to produce the required parts. Fracture is one of the main forms of material failure, and its study has always been a major research area in materials development and application. Currently, finite element method (FEM) simulation analysis is widely used in materials forming and collision analysis. Accurate model establishment and precise acquisition of material parameters are crucial for the accuracy of simulation predictions. In 2014, the inventors proposed the I1 fracture criterion, based on the first invariant stress I1. This criterion considers I1 as the fracture parameter of metallic materials, meaning that when I1 reaches the fracture strength I of the metallic material... b Fracture occurred at that time; subsequently, experimental verification of the effectiveness of the I1 fracture criterion, consistency analysis with the brittle fracture K criterion, explanation of the intrinsic mechanism of various fracture behaviors of metallic materials based on the I1 fracture criterion, and fracture strength I were carried out. b Research on testing technologies and other related work.

[0003] However, defects often exist in actual metal structural materials. The existence of stress concentration effect makes defects a potential source of fracture in metal structures. Therefore, studying the stress field evolution characteristics at defects under force load is of practical significance for fracture design of metal structures.

Through the above settings, the potential brittle fracture, elastoplastic fracture and all-plastic fracture risks in the metal structure can be identified and assessed. This helps engineers and designers understand where there may be elastoplastic fracture risks, so as to take corresponding measures or select materials for reinforcement or design improvement. Combined with the material selection design principle, it ensures that the selected materials do not undergo elastoplastic fracture or only all-plastic fracture at the lowest service temperature of the metal structure, which helps to improve the safety of the metal structure.

[0058] To make the technical means and objectives and effects of the present invention easier to understand, the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to specific illustrations.

[0059] Example 1

[0060] This application discloses a fracture analysis method for metal structures, based on the I1 fracture criterion hypothesis proposed by the inventors in 2014. The fracture criterion is based on the condition that the first invariant stress I1 in a local region of the material reaches a critical value I. b At this point, fracture begins to occur; the critical value I is defined. b The fracture strength I of a material can be determined by a uniaxial tensile test. b It is assumed that the first invariant stress I1 is the fracture parameter of metallic materials, that is, when I1 reaches the fracture strength I of the metallic material... bWhen fracture occurs, combining this fracture criterion with the Mises yield criterion, the four basic mechanical behavior criteria are as follows: (1) Elastic deformation σ Mises <σ y , I1 < I b (2) Plastic deformation σ Mises ≥σ y , I1 < I b (3) Brittle fracture σ Mises <σ y , I1≥I b (4) Plastic fracture σ Mises ≥σ y , I1≥I b .

[0061] The applicant subsequently conducted experimental verification of the effectiveness of the I1 fracture criterion, consistency analysis with the brittle fracture K criterion, explanation of the intrinsic mechanism of various fracture behaviors of metallic materials based on the I1 fracture criterion, and fracture strength I... b Research on testing techniques, including analysis of the stress field evolution characteristics of a body with notches under force load and analysis of the stress field evolution characteristics of a body with cracks under force load.

[0062] In the stress field evolution analysis of a body with a notch under load, the stress field evolution characteristics and influencing factors of a notch defect with a simplified root as an arc shape under tensile load are investigated. The stress field evolution process of a body with a central notch under uniaxial tension in plane strain is analyzed using the elastoplastic finite element method. Figure 1 shows the finite element model of the body with a central notch: the size W of the notch is 500 mm, the radius r of the arc at the root of the notch is 0.5 mm, and the half-length a of the notch is 2.0 mm. Due to geometric symmetry, a 1 / 4 model is used for finite element analysis, with 8-node quadrilateral elements. The mesh size near the top of the notch is set to 0.01 mm × 0.01 mm. A displacement load v is applied perpendicular to the length of the notch (i.e., the y-axis direction in the rectangular coordinate system of Figure 1). y With a load step size of 0.01 mm and a maximum displacement load of 3.0 mm, analyze the nominal value of the Mises equivalent stress (hereinafter referred to as "equivalent stress") in the body containing the notch during the loading process. (i.e., the equivalent stress at the tensile end face) and its maximum value Maximum value of the first invariant of stress Equivalent stress at the root of the incision First invariant of stress The material parameters in this study are referenced from high-strength low-alloy steel, specifically set as follows: Young's modulus E = 210 GPa, Poisson's ratio v = 0.3, and yield strength σ = 0.3. s The stress is 725 MPa, and the plastic stress-strain constitutive relation is set as shown in Figure 2.

[0063] Nominal equivalent stress of a body with a central notch during uniaxial tension Maximum equivalent stress Maximum value of the first invariant of stress Equivalent stress at the root of the incision First invariant of stress Various stresses and yield strength σ s The ratio of the nominal tensile strain ε n The evolutionary process is shown in Figure 3A, which is converted into The constant stress ratio varies with the ratio of nominal equivalent stress to yield strength. The changes are shown in Figure 3B:

[0064] According to the I1 fracture criterion, fracture is determined by the maximum value of the first invariant stress. Therefore, the stress field evolution under the bearing conditions of the cut body The curve becomes the key characteristic curve determining fracture. Based on the above finite element simulation results, the stress field evolution process of the notched body, as shown in Figure 4, can be established. Characteristic curve: This curve consists of three parts: elastic deformation segment, elastoplastic deformation segment, and fully plastic deformation segment; the ratio of the equivalent stress at the root of the notch to the nominal equivalent stress is assumed. The equivalent stress concentration factor at the root of the incision. Then when equal When yielding occurs at the root of the notch, i.e., the body containing the notch enters the elastoplastic deformation stage, let the ratio of the maximum value of the first invariant stress at this point to the yield strength be given. ω1; when When the stress ratio equals 1, the entire body including the notch yields, entering the stage of full plastic deformation. Let the ratio of the maximum value of the first invariant stress at this point to the yield strength be denoted as follows: ω2; as shown in Figure 4, the local yield point (i.e., the starting point of elastoplastic deformation) and the overall yield point (i.e., the starting point of full plastic deformation) are... The characteristic curve has two characteristic points, therefore the parameters ω1 and ω2 are The three characteristic values ​​of the characteristic curve.

[0065] The nominal equivalent stress in a rectangular coordinate system can be obtained from linear elasticity. The general forms of the stress component and strain component functions are shown in equations (1) and (2) (where... These are six nominal stress components. (representing six nominal strain components), equivalent stress at the notch root. First invariant of stress The general forms of the stress component and strain component functions are shown in equations (3) and (4) (where... These are the six stress components at the root of the incision. These are the six strain components at the root of the cut; further derivation yields the eigenvalues. The general forms of the stress component and strain component functions are shown in equations (5) and (6); as shown in Figure 6, the eigenvalue ω1 and the stress at the root of the notch have the relationship shown in equation (7), and thus the general forms of the eigenvalue ω1 with respect to the stress component and strain component functions shown in equations (8) and (9) can be derived. The slope of the elastic deformation segment of the characteristic curve With eigenvalues The relationship between ω1 and ω1 is shown in equation (10).

[0066] The fracture risk at the notch root is greatest when both the nominal stress and the principal stress at the notch root are in the coordinate axis direction, and the normal stress component in the y-axis direction is the first principal stress and is positive. In this case, the eigenvalue... The expression for ω1 degenerates into the forms shown in equations (11) and (12), which are related to the material’s Poisson’s ratio v, nominal stress-strain, and stress-strain at the root of the notch; the expression for eigenvalue ω1 degenerates into the forms shown in equations (13) and (14), which are related to the material’s Poisson’s ratio v and stress state at the root of the notch.

[0067] Under plane strain conditions, eigenvalues The expression for ω1 degenerates into the forms shown in equations (15) and (16), which are related to Poisson's ratio v, nominal stress-strain and root stress-strain; the expression for eigenvalue ω1 degenerates into the form shown in equation (17), which is only related to Poisson's ratio v. Figure 5 shows the correlation curve between eigenvalue ω1 and Poisson's ratio v under plane strain conditions, which is close to linear. The eigenvalue ω1 increases with the increase of Poisson's ratio v.

[0068] Under plane stress, eigenvalues The expression for ω1 degenerates into the forms shown in equations (18) and (19), which are related to Poisson's ratio v, nominal stress-strain and root stress-strain; the eigenvalue ω1 degenerates into the constant 1, as shown in equation (20).

[0069] ω1=1 (20);

[0070] In the axisymmetric state, eigenvalues It can be expressed in the form shown in equations (21) and (22), and is related to the material’s Poisson’s ratio v, nominal stress-strain and notch root stress-strain; the characteristic value ω1 can be expressed in the form shown in equations (23) and (24), and is related to the material’s Poisson’s ratio v and notch root stress-strain, and is not a constant value, and is different from plane strain and plane stress state.

[0071] The applicant's research shows that factors such as stress state, loading method, stress-strain concentration, and material parameters all affect the elastic deformation stage in the stress field evolution process. Characteristic curves were used to further analyze the influence of the above factors on the complete stress field evolution of the body with notches from elastic deformation to full plastic deformation. The influence of characteristic curves.

[0072] This study shows the stress field evolution of a body with a notch under force loading. The characteristic curve contains two characteristic points: the initiation point of elastic-plastic deformation and the initiation point of fully plastic deformation. Value corresponding The value is ω1, the starting point of full plastic deformation. The value is 1, corresponding to The value is ω2, so the fracture analysis diagram of the notched body can be established according to the I1 fracture criterion and the Mises yield criterion, as shown in Figure 6.

[0073] Furthermore, in the stress field evolution characteristics analysis of a cracked body under load, the applicant simplified the root of the crack defect body to a circular arc shape under tensile load and analyzed its stress field evolution characteristics and influencing factors. The elastoplastic finite element method was used to analyze the stress field evolution process of a body with a central crack under typical stress states such as plane strain, plane stress, and axisymmetry during uniaxial tension. Figure 7 shows the finite element model of the body with a central crack: the size W of the cracked body is set to 500 mm, and the crack half-length a is 2.0 mm; due to geometric symmetry, a 1 / 4 model is used for finite element analysis, with an 8-node quadrilateral element type, and the mesh size near the crack tip is set to 0.05 mm × 0.05 mm. A displacement load v is applied perpendicular to the crack length direction (i.e., the y-axis direction in the rectangular coordinate system of Figure 7). y With a load step size of 0.01 mm and a maximum displacement load of 3.0 mm, analyze the nominal value of the Mises equivalent stress (hereinafter referred to as "equivalent stress") in the cracked body during the loading process. (i.e., the equivalent stress at the tensile end face) and its maximum value Maximum value of the first invariant of stress Equivalent stress at the crack tip First invariant of stress The changes in material parameters were studied. The material parameters for both austenitic and ferritic steels were referenced, specifically set as follows: for austenitic steel, Young's modulus E was 180 GPa, Poisson's ratio v was 0.3, and yield strength σ... s The strength is 500 MPa, the Young's modulus E of the ferritic steel is 210 GPa, the Poisson's ratio v is 0.3, and the yield strength σ is... s The stress is 725 MPa. Figure 8 shows the plastic stress-strain constitutive relationship settings for the two materials.

[0074] Based on the analysis of the stress field evolution characteristics of cracked bodies, linear elastic fracture mechanics and linear elastic finite element method are used to compare and analyze the stress field characteristics at the crack tip, and the characteristic value function of the stress field at the crack tip in the plane state is explored.

[0075] Nominal equivalent stress of austenitic steel containing a central crack under plane strain during uniaxial tension Maximum equivalent stress Maximum value of the first invariant of stress Equivalent stress at crack tip First invariant of stress Various stresses and yield strength σ s The ratio of the nominal tensile strain ε n The evolutionary process is shown in Figure 9A, which is converted into The constant stress ratio varies with the ratio of nominal equivalent stress to yield strength. The changes are shown in Figure 9B. The stress field evolution characteristics of austenitic steel and ferritic steel containing a central crack under uniaxial tension in three stress states—plane stress, plane strain, and axisymmetric stress—were compared and analyzed. The results are shown in Figures 10A and 10B: both materials exhibit the same stress field evolution characteristics under different stress states. The results in Figures 10A and 10B also show that the stress-strain constitutive relationship of plastic deformation mainly affects the stress field evolution characteristic curves in the later stage of elastoplastic deformation and the fully plastic deformation stage. This characteristic is consistent with the stress field characteristic curves of the notched body mentioned above.

[0076] [Corrected according to Rule 91, 23.10.2024] As can be seen from the I1 fracture criterion, fracture is determined by the maximum value of the first invariant stress. Therefore, the stress field evolution of a cracked body under load is... The curve becomes the key characteristic curve determining fracture. Based on the above finite element simulation results, the stress field evolution process of the cracked body, as shown in Figure 11, can be established. The characteristic curve, whose shape is basically consistent with that of a notched body, consists of three parts: an elastic deformation segment, an elastoplastic deformation segment, and a fully plastic deformation segment; similarly, the ratio of the equivalent stress at the crack tip to the nominal equivalent stress is set. The equivalent stress concentration factor at the crack tip Then when equal When the crack tip yields, meaning the cracked body enters the elastoplastic deformation stage, let the ratio of the maximum value of the first invariant stress to the yield strength be given. ω1; when When the stress ratio equals 1, the cracked body yields as a whole, entering the stage of full plastic deformation. Let the ratio of the maximum value of the first invariant stress at this point to the yield strength be taken as follows. ω2; as shown in Figure 11, the local yield point (i.e., the starting point of elastoplastic deformation) and the overall yield point (i.e., the starting point of full plastic deformation) are... The characteristic curve has two characteristic points, therefore the parameters ω1 and ω2 are The three characteristic values ​​of the characteristic curve.

[0077] Based on the results of the study on the stress field evolution characteristics of the notched body and the analysis results of the stress field at the crack tip, it is inferred that the characteristic value ω1 is only related to the correlation of each stress component at the crack tip during the elastic deformation stage, and is not greatly affected by stress singularity. Moreover, from the perspective of fracture control of metal structures, the characteristic value ω1 is more practically significant for preventing brittle fracture.

[0078] Since the formula for calculating the characteristic value ω1 and the stress function derived from linear elastic fracture mechanics do not hold true at the crack tip, the applicant, based on the research of "Xue Gang. Consistency analysis of I_(1) criterion and K criterion for linear elastic fracture of plane strain type I crack under biaxial equal tensile stress [J]. Materials Development and Application, 2023, 38(1):1-8", found that the first invariant I1 of the stress at the crack tip under biaxial equal tensile stress in plane strain state obtained from linear elastic finite element simulation analysis is consistent with the stress field intensity factor K. I The consistency between the stress components at the crack tip obtained by the finite element simulation method indicates that the correlation between the stress components at the crack tip is inherently reasonable. This study also found that under biaxial tensile stress in a plane strain state, the normal stress component at the crack tip is λ... x-y (defined as the normal stress component along the x-axis at the crack tip in the coordinate system shown in Figure 7) Normal stress components in the y-axis direction The ratio of the shear stress components (λ) and the ratio of the shear stress components (λ) xy-y (defined as the shear stress component at the crack tip in the coordinate system shown in Figure 7) Normal stress components in the y-axis direction The ratios of the nominal normal stress components (k1, defined as the nominal normal stress components in the x-axis direction of the coordinate system shown in Figure 7) are all constants independent of crack length. The applicant further studied the ratio of the nominal normal stress components under plane strain and plane stress conditions (k1 is defined as the ratio of the nominal normal stress components in the x-axis direction of the coordinate system shown in Figure 7). The nominal normal stress component in the y-axis direction The ratio of the minimum mesh size l1 (defined as the side length of the minimum mesh element at the crack tip) to the stress component at the crack tip is λ. x-y and λ xy-y The effect of this result on λ under both plane strain and plane stress states is shown in the results. x-y Both maintain a linear relationship with k1, and the ratio of the normal stress component at the crack tip to the slope The variation of the minimum mesh size l1 with the stress state is shown in Figures 12A and 12B. The distribution of lnl1 all satisfy the exponential function distribution law, and the regression yields the equation (25). Regarding the distribution function of l1, this function can be used to obtain the minimum mesh size l1 tending to zero under plane strain and plane stress conditions. The limit value is 1, as shown in equation (26), that is, when l1 approaches zero, the ratio of the nominal normal stress component to the crack tip normal stress component λ under different values ​​of k1. x-y The limiting value is the ratio of the normal stress component at the crack tip under biaxial equal tensile stress conditions (i.e., k1 = 1). As shown in equation (27); according to the basic principle of the finite element method, the stress value at the crack tip obtained by finite element simulation is actually the average value over a certain region related to the minimum mesh size l1 at the crack tip. Therefore, when l1 approaches zero, λ x-y The limit value can be considered as the ratio of the actual normal stress components at the crack tip, denoted as . (Right now From the relationship shown in equation (27), the ratio of the normal stress components at the crack tip can be derived. It is independent of the ratio of the nominal normal stress components, k1.

[0079] Besides crack length and the ratio of nominal normal stress components k1, what also affects the ratio of stress components at the crack tip λ? x-y and λ xy-y Other possible factors include the magnitude of the load and the material's elastic deformation parameters (Young's modulus E and Poisson's ratio v). Therefore, a comparative analysis was conducted under both plane strain and plane stress conditions for both the load and the material's elastic deformation parameters. The study shows that the stress component at the crack tip is more pronounced under both plane strain and plane stress conditions. and It is only related to Poisson's ratio v, and is independent of other factors.

[0080] For a series of Poisson's ratio v values ​​(since v is less than 0.5 in the elastic deformation stage, and considering possible cases, we set 0.25≤v≤0.499), we conducted linear elastic finite element simulations of bodies with a central crack under biaxial constant tensile stress conditions with different minimum mesh size l1 values ​​(the finite element model is shown in Figure 7).

[0081] Based on the stress component ratio at the crack tip and The equivalent stress at the crack tip under both plane strain and plane stress conditions can be derived. First invariant of stress The expressions are shown in Equations (28) and (29) respectively. Further, the expression for the characteristic value ω1 of the stress field evolution at the crack tip is derived as shown in Equation (30): Under plane strain, the characteristic value ω1 first increases in an approximately linear relationship with the increase of Poisson's ratio v. When the Poisson's ratio v is about 0.47, the characteristic value ω1 reaches its maximum value. Subsequently, as the Poisson's ratio v continues to increase, the characteristic value ω1 decreases sharply. Under this stress state, the characteristic value ω1 can be determined by Equation (31). For most metal structural materials, the Poisson's ratio v is about 0.3. Therefore, the characteristic value ω1 under this condition can be calculated to be about 4.588. Under plane stress, the correlation curve between the characteristic value ω1 and the Poisson's ratio v is approximately a straight line with a slope of zero. The fitting function is shown in Equation (32). It can be considered that the influence of Poisson's ratio v on the characteristic value ω1 is very small and negligible. The characteristic value ω1 when the Poisson's ratio v is 0.3 is calculated to be 1.860, which is much lower than that under plane strain.

[0082] ω1=1.86824-0.02849·v (R 2 =0.99998) (32);

[0083] The applicant studied the stress singularity at the crack tip and the location of the equivalent stress peak based on the fracture analysis diagram of a cracked body. The results show that, in the absence of internal stress, the maximum equivalent stress of the cracked body under the aforementioned force loading conditions should be located at the crack tip under both plane strain and plane stress conditions. The fundamental reason why the location of the maximum equivalent stress deviates from the crack tip under plane strain conditions is still the stress singularity at the crack tip caused by the linear elastic assumption. Therefore, in this study, the eigenvalue ω1 is approximated as the first invariant stress I1 at the crack tip during the elastic deformation stage and the equivalent stress. The ratio has its own inherent rationality.

[0084] The applicant's research shows that there is a corresponding stress field evolution in metal structures under force loads. Furthermore, the stress field evolution of the cracked body under force load Characteristic curves and stress field evolution of a body with notches under force loading The characteristic curves exhibit the same features, and the fracture analysis diagram shown in Figure 13 can also be constructed based on the I1 fracture criterion and the Mises yield criterion. This stress field evolution... The characteristic curve is the critical line between the deformation zone and the fracture zone; the area above it is the deformation zone, and the area below it is the fracture zone, meaning that within a certain range... Under certain conditions, when the ratio of the material's fracture strength to its yield strength (hereinafter referred to as "strength ratio") is I b / σ s Greater than At that time, the body containing the cut only deforms but does not break; when I b / σ s Not greater than At that time, the incision site will fracture after deformation; in the deformation zone (i.e. ),when At that time, the body containing the cut undergoes elastic deformation, when When the cut body undergoes elastoplastic deformation, When the notched body undergoes full plastic deformation, Equation (33) summarizes the criteria for the three deformation types; in the fracture zone When I b / σ s When ω<1, the fracture type of the body containing the notch is elastic fracture (i.e., brittle fracture); when ω<1≤I0 b / σ s When I < ω2, the fracture type of the notched body is elastoplastic fracture; when I b / σ s When ≥ω2, the fracture type of the body with notches is fully plastic fracture. Equation (34) shows a summary of the criteria for the three fracture types.

[0085] The aforementioned research results show that eigenvalues ω1 and ω2 must be three actual mechanical parameters. The fracture resistance of a metal structure is mainly determined by the material's strength ratio I. b / σ s Stress field evolution under force load Characteristic curve: the strength ratio I of the material b / σ s The higher, eigenvalues ​​of characteristic curves The larger the value and the smaller the eigenvalues ​​ω1 and ω2, the better the fracture resistance of the body containing the notch. Strength ratio I b / σ sThe yield strength σ of 304 stainless steel (austenitic steel), EH50 steel (ferritic steel) and 10Ni5CrMoV steel (ferritic steel) is a material property mainly determined by the material's composition and microstructure. The literature "Xue Gang, Gong Xuhui, Gao Zhenpeng, et al. Experimental verification of the validity of the I1 fracture criterion assumption under approximate two-dimensional stress state [J]. Materials Development and Application, 2018, 33(3):9.DOI:CNKI:SUN:CLKY.0.2018-03-001" gives the yield strength σ of 304 stainless steel (austenitic steel), EH50 steel (ferritic steel) and 10Ni5CrMoV steel (ferritic steel). s and fracture strength I b Data, calculated, shows the strength ratio of the three types of steel I b / σ s The values ​​are approximately 5.2, 3.5, and 2.5 respectively. Clearly, the strength of austenitic 304 stainless steel is higher than that of I... b / σ s It is much higher than the other two types of ferritic steel.

[0086] Stress field evolution The characteristic curve is mainly determined by material parameters, stress state, loading method, and stress-strain concentration at the notch, where: eigenvalues The stress field evolution is mainly determined by Poisson's ratio v, the location and size of the notch, the stress state, and the loading method; the eigenvalue ω1 is mainly determined by Poisson's ratio v and the stress state at the root of the notch; the eigenvalue ω2 is mainly determined by the plastic stress-strain constitutive relation, the location and size of the notch, the stress state, and the loading method. Characteristic curves provide new technical insights for fracture-resistant design and safety assessment of metal structures.

[0087] Example 2

[0088] This application also discloses a fracture-resistant design method for metal structures, which establishes the stress field evolution of metal structures under load. Characteristic curves and strength ratio of the measured material I b / σ s :

[0090] The fracture-resistant design method for metal structures disclosed in this embodiment is based on the applicant's proposed I1 fracture criterion assumption. It combines the form of the metal structure and the load-bearing conditions, especially the stress field evolution analysis for notched bodies, cracked bodies, and planar through-type central notches, to establish the strength ratio I of the metal structure's material. b / σ s Stress field evolution under force load Characteristic curve, as shown in Figure 13, is the eigenvalue in this fracture analysis diagram. ω1 and ω2 must be three actual mechanical parameters, under certain conditions. Under certain conditions, when the ratio of the material's fracture strength to its yield strength (referred to as the "strength ratio") is I b / σ s Greater than When I, the metal structure only deforms but does not break. b / σ s Not greater than When metal structures deform, they will fracture; in the deformation zone (i.e. ):when When the metal structure undergoes elastic deformation, When the metal structure undergoes elastoplastic deformation, At that time, the metal structure undergoes full plastic deformation; in the fracture zone... When I b / σ s When ω<1, the fracture type of the metallic structure is elastic fracture (i.e., brittle fracture); when ω<1 ≤ I0 b / σ s When I < ω2, the fracture type of the metal structure is elastoplastic fracture; when I < ω2, the fracture type of the metal structure is elastoplastic fracture. b / σ s When ≥ω2, the fracture type of the metal structure is fully plastic fracture.

[0091] In the example of this application, the metal structure anti-fracture design method includes a metal structure anti-brittle fracture design method, comprising the following steps:

[0092] S11: Calculate the characteristic value ω1 of the stress field at the weak points in the metal structure. The weak points in the metal structure are the stress concentration points caused by the geometric discontinuity of the structural shape.

[0093] S12: Material selection is based on the stress field characteristic value ω1 at weak points in the metal structure. The principle is that the material's fracture strength I should be within the minimum service temperature of the metal structure design. b With yield strength σ s The ratio is greater than the characteristic value ω1 of the largest stress field at the weakest point in the metal structure, as shown in the following formula:

[0094] The fracture strength I of the material b With yield strength σ s Determined by uniaxial tensile testing of round bar specimens.

[0095] The metal structure anti-brittle fracture design method described in this invention, based on the applicant's proposed I1 fracture criterion, calculates the stress field characteristic value ω1 at weak points in the metal structure. These weak points are typically stress concentration points caused by structural discontinuities, and may be stress concentration areas caused by notches, cracks, or other types of defects. Based on the calculated stress field characteristic value of the weak points, material selection is performed. The principle of material selection is to ensure that, at the lowest service temperature of the metal structure design, the ratio of the material's fracture strength to its yield strength is greater than the maximum stress field characteristic value at the potentially weak point in the metal structure. Through this approach, potential brittle fracture risks in the metal structure can be identified and assessed. This helps engineers and designers understand where brittle fracture risks may exist, allowing them to take corresponding measures or select materials for reinforcement or design improvements. Combined with the material selection design principle, this ensures that the selected materials avoid brittle fracture at the lowest service temperature of the metal structure, thus improving the safety of the metal structure and reducing the risk of brittle fracture accidents.

[0096] In step S11, for general-type metallic structural steel, the method of linear elastic finite element method is used to determine the structure, including the following steps:

[0097] S111: Establish a geometric model of the metal structure, which includes stress concentration points at weak locations;

[0098] S112: Apply loads according to the actual working conditions of the metal structure or the designed force load conditions;

[0099] S113: Simulate the stress or strain components at the weak points of the metal structure, and calculate the characteristic value ω1 of the stress field at the weak points according to the basic calculation formula.

[0100] In the examples of this application, the weak points of the metal structure are the locations in the metal structure containing notched bodies, cracked bodies, or other stress concentration points.

[0101] This application employs the linear elastic finite element method to simulate the stress field characteristic value ω1 of a metal structure. By establishing a geometric model and applying actual working conditions or design loads, the stress distribution of the metal structure under different working conditions can be accurately simulated. The simulated stress or strain components can reflect the stress concentration at weak points in the metal structure, providing an accurate data foundation for subsequent calculations of the stress field characteristic value. During the simulation, the influence of these stress concentration locations on the structural stress distribution can be comprehensively considered, contributing to an accurate assessment of the structure's safety. The finite element method flexibly handles various structural forms and complex situations, allowing for simulation analysis of different types of metal structures, and adjustments and improvements can be made as needed. It enables efficient simulation calculations, and the analysis of simulation results guides structural design and improvement, enhancing structural safety. Furthermore, the elastic finite element method can generate visualized results, intuitively displaying the stress distribution of the structure, helping engineers and designers understand the structural behavior and make corresponding design decisions.

[0114] This method discloses a way to calculate the characteristic values ​​of the stress field using principal stress components (σ1, σ2, σ3), which simplifies the calculation process. Since the principal stresses are characteristic values ​​of the stress tensor, directly using the principal stress components avoids involving other minor stress components during the calculation, thus simplifying the calculation steps. In addition, the principal stresses are key factors affecting material deformation and failure. Therefore, when analyzing the stress situation in metal structures, using the principal stress components for calculation can directly reflect the main stress state in the metal structure. By further calculating the characteristic values ​​of the stress field, such as the first invariant stress I1 and the Mises equivalent stress, the stability and safety of the metal structure can be comprehensively evaluated. This provides an accurate basis for the design and analysis of the structure, guiding structural designers to optimize or improve the design of metal structures to enhance their resistance to damage.

This decomposition method can effectively improve the calculation efficiency, especially for the calculation of large or complex structures. It is applicable to various loading conditions and metal structure types and has wide applicability.

[0128] In the examples of this application, this application also discloses a stress field characteristic value calculation under special conditions, which mainly refers to center-penetrating notches and cracks under plane stress or plane strain conditions.

[0129] As a preferred example of this application, in step S11, for a center-through cut, the stress field characteristic value ω1 at the root of the cut under plane stress is equal to 1; the stress field characteristic value ω1 at the root of the cut under plane strain is calculated according to the following formula:

[0132] In the formula, v is the Poisson's ratio of the material.

[0133] In special cases, namely, center-penetrating notches and cracks under plane stress or plane strain conditions, corresponding methods for calculating the characteristic values ​​of the stress field are presented. These methods are proposed for specific situations, possessing certain simplifications and particularities, and can more accurately describe the stress field characteristics of notches and cracks. For center-penetrating notches, methods for calculating the characteristic values ​​of the stress field at the root of the notch under plane stress and plane strain conditions are given. Under plane stress conditions, the characteristic value of the stress field at the root of the notch is fixed at 1, while under plane strain conditions, the calculation method for the characteristic value of the stress field at the root of the notch is based on the material's Poisson's ratio. This helps to better understand and evaluate the stress distribution of the notch under different conditions. For center-penetrating cracks, methods for calculating the characteristic values ​​of the stress field at the crack tip are also given under plane stress and plane strain conditions. Under plane stress conditions, the characteristic value of the stress field at the crack tip is fixed at 1.868, while under plane strain conditions, the calculation method for the characteristic value of the stress field at the crack tip is also based on the material's Poisson's ratio.
