This invention provides a numerical
simulation method and
system for irregular contact between the inner wall and lining of a pipeline. The method includes: first, establishing a three-dimensional model of the pipeline and the lining, assembling and positioning them, and extracting the inner wall of the pipeline and the outer wall of the lining as the contact interface, and establishing corresponding contact pairs; defining
tangential contact properties for the contact pairs, specifying a user-defined friction
subroutine, and setting user parameter arrays and
state variable arrays; then, constructing an interface friction constitutive model based on the frictional
physics mechanism of the contact interface; during the finite element incremental analysis, obtaining the current normal pressure,
shear displacement increment, state variables, and user parameters through the user-defined friction
subroutine, calculating the interface trial
shear stress of the current incremental step, and determining the actual
shear stress and corresponding
tangential stiffness of the interface based on the contact state; and writing the historical relevant data of the current incremental step into the
state variable array for subsequent incremental steps to call. This invention can more reasonably characterize the interface
shear stress, slip state, and contact evolution process.
