Numerical Ductile Tearing Simulation of Circumferential Cracked Pipe Tests under Dynamic Loading Conditions

초록

This paper presents a numerical method to simulate ductile tearing in cracked components under high strain rates using finite element damage analysis. The strain rate dependence on tensile properties and multiaxial fracture strain is characterized by the model developed by Johnson and Cook. The damage model is then defined based on the ductility exhaustion concept using the strain rate dependent multiaxial fracture strain concept. The proposed model is applied to simulate previously published three cracked pipe bending test results under two different test speed conditions. Simulated results show overall good agreement with experimental results. Copyright (C) 2016, Published by Elsevier Korea LLC on behalf of Korean Nuclear Society.
