The present invention discloses a method for determining
high stress volume under notch-defect interaction, which belongs to the technical field of
damage tolerance assessment and fatigue strength prediction, comprising: calculating
stress distribution data of the notch root in a component structure containing a defect notch by finite
element analysis, and outputting the ratio of axial stress to
nominal stress; calculating the virtual
defect size of the notch component structure; using the
critical distance method, combined with the ratio, calculating the
stress concentration parameter of the notch root in the component structure containing the defect notch; and calculating the
high stress volume area by analyzing the competitive effect of the notch and the defect, combined with the virtual
defect size and
stress concentration parameter. The present invention comprehensively considers the interaction between the notch and the defect, accurately calculates the
high stress volume of the structure, helps to predict the fatigue failure site, and thus improves the accuracy of fatigue assessment. It is universal for structural parts with notches of any size and shape, is easy to operate, and has a wide range of applications.
