TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of test design, more particularly, to a nonlinear similar scale test model design method of replaceable materials. BACKGROUND
[0002] The mechanism of the buckling failure of the hull girder is quite complex, because the stiffened plate frame constituting the hull girder has multiple buckling collapse forms, and the influences of geometric nonlinearity and material nonlinearity exist simultaneously from the buckling to the final collapse stage, so even today with the high-speed development of computer technology, a single solution method cannot accurately evaluate the ultimate bearing capacity of the hull girder. In order to more deeply study the buckling failure mechanism and deformation process of the hull structure, how to use the scale model test to predict the ultimate bearing capacity of the original model structure is particularly important. As a basic unit of the hull girder structure, the bending of the hull girder is actually a process of compression of the horizontal stiffened plate, and the ultimate bearing capacity thereof can be directly evaluated by using an analytical method and a semi-analytical semi-empirical formula method. However, most of the analytical methods are based on the thin plate buckling theory in the linear elastic range, and the coupling influences of geometric nonlinearity and material nonlinearity are not fully considered, and the numerical method based on theoretical derivation also has such a problem, so the experimental study of the ultimate strength of the stiffened plate still occupies an important position, and the test method is still the most reliable means for predicting the ultimate bearing capacity of the original model.
[0003] In the experimental study, the original model structure test has the highest test accuracy, but the cost of the original model processing test is too high, so it is rarely used by researchers. In most cases, researchers will use a certain specific similarity theory to scale the original model structure into a scale model with relatively small geometric size based on a preset scale, to reduce the test cost while ensuring the accuracy of the test results. The similarity theories commonly used in the similarity design of ship structures at present mainly include the full similarity theory and the distortion similarity theory. The full similarity theory requires the structure to be scaled at the same scale in the size dimension and the plate thickness dimension, which is not applicable to thin-walled structures such as the stiffened plate with small plate thickness in many cases. The distortion similarity theory allows different scaling ratios in the size dimension and the plate thickness dimension based on the full similarity theory, but may change the buckling mode of the scale model. In addition, researchers have also derived a number of similarity criteria based on the dimensional analysis method, which can also be used for the similarity design of the stiffened plate structure. According to the dimensional theory, the original model structure and the scale model that meet the same similarity criterion will exhibit similar bearing characteristics.
[0004] When using existing similarity theories or design methods to design scaled models of actual ship stiffened plate structures, most similarity design methods are based on directional dimensional analysis. If only the linear elastic small deformation stage is considered, the scaled model's accuracy in predicting the ultimate strength of the original model is low. If the nonlinear large deformation stage is considered, new similarity criteria must be determined, resulting in a large workload and high operational difficulty. When material replacement is required in the scaled model due to processing or other reasons, traditional methods do not clearly define how to select the replacement material. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a method for designing a nonlinear similarity scaled test model of replaceable materials.

[0046] The present invention guides the user to select appropriate test model materials and establish a test design model based on the geometric characteristics of the original model. By establishing a connection between the entire physical process of the stiffened plate original model and the test design model, the original model and the test design model have similar structural responses in both the linear elastic small deformation stage and the nonlinear large deformation stage.
