Abstract

The Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) is conducting structural analyses, both deterministic and probabilistic, to simulate a large scale mock-up experiment planned within the European Network for Structural Integrity for Lifetime Management non-RPV Components (STYLE). The paper summarizes current ORNL analyses of STYLE s Mock-up3 experiment to simulate/evaluate ductile crack growth in a cladded ferritic pipe. Deterministic analyses of the large-scale bending test of ferritic surge pipe, with an internal circumferential crack, are simulated with a number of local micromechanical approaches, such as Gurson-Tvergaard-Needleman (GTN) model and cohesive-zone model. Both WARP 3D and ABAQUS general purpose finite element programs are being used to predict the failure load and the failure mode, i.e. ductile tearing or net-section collapse, as part of the pre-test phase of the project. Companion probabilistic analyses of the experiment are utilizing the ORNL developed open-source Structural Integrity Assessment Modular - Probabilistic Fracture Mechanics (SIAM-PFM) framework. SIAM-PFM contains engineering assessment methodology such as the tearing instability (J-T analysis) module developed for inner surface cracks under bending load. The driving force J-integral estimations are based on the SC.ENG1 or SC.ENG2 models. The J-A2 methodology is used to transfer (constraint-adjust) J-R curve material data from standard test specimens to themore »« less

ORNL Pre-test Analyses of A Large-scale Experiment in STYLE

Conference Williams, Paul T ; Yin, Shengjun ; Klasky, Hilda B ; ...

Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) is conducting a series of numerical analyses to simulate a large scale mock-up experiment planned within the European Network for Structural Integrity for Lifetime Management non-RPV Components (STYLE). STYLE is a European cooperative effort to assess the structural integrity of (non-reactor pressure vessel) reactor coolant pressure boundary components relevant to ageing and life-time management and to integrate the knowledge created in the project into mainstream nuclear industry assessment codes. ORNL contributes work-in-kind support to STYLE Work Package 2 (Numerical Analysis/Advanced Tools) and Work Package 3 (Engineering Assessment Methods/LBB Analyses).

Local Approach of Fracture in the Ductile Regime and Application to VVER Materials

Conference Margolin, B Z ; Keim, E ; Chaouadi, R

Within the TACIS R2.06/96 project: 'Surveillance Program for VVER 1000 Reactors', sponsored by the European Commission, the local approach of fracture has been applied in the ductile regime. Two different models were applied and compared, namely Tvergaard-Needleman-Gurson versus Prometey model. The main tasks are: - perform special Local Approach experiments on smooth and notched cylindrical specimens; - predict JR-curve on the basis of the ductile fracture models; - compare two models of ductile fracture, namely, the Tvergaard-Needleman-Gurson model and the Prometey model. In this paper, the Tvergaard-Needleman-Gurson and Prometey models are briefly described. The parameters of both models were calibratedmore »« less
Validation of formability of laminated sheet metal for deep drawing process using GTN damage model

Journal Article Lim, Yongbin ; Cha, Wan-gi ; Kim, Naksoo ; ... - AIP Conference Proceedings

In this study, we studied formability of PET/PVC laminated sheet metal which named VCM (Vinyl Coated Metal). VCM offers various patterns and good-looking metal steel used for appliances such as refrigerator and washing machine. But, this sheet has problems which are crack and peeling of film when the material is formed by deep drawing process. To predict the problems, we used finite element method and GTN (Gurson-Tvergaard-Needleman) damage model to represent damage of material. We divided the VCM into 3 layers (PET film, adhesive and steel added PVC) in finite element analysis model to express the crack and peeling phenomenon.more »« less

Mechanistic prediction of fracture processes in ferritic steel welds within the transition temperature regime

Journal Article Busso, E P ; Lei, Y ; O`Dowd, N P ; ... - Journal of Engineering Materials and Technology

This work examines the fracture behavior of ferritic steel welds in the transition temperature regime, where failure can occur either by ductile tearing or cleavage fracture. A computational and probabilistic-based mechanistic approach to cleavage fracture and ductile crack growth is adopted to model the fracture processes. The softening effect of ductile damage close to the crack tip is described by a Gurson-type material model. A statistical approach linked to both the Weibull stress and the initial void volume fraction is employed to determine the probability of cleavage fracture and the coupling between both fracture mechanisms. Finite element results are reliedmore »« less

Triaxial Constraint and Tensile Strength Enhancement in Brazed Joints

Journal Article Cai, Xin ; Gao, Yanfei ; Wang, Xue ; ... - Metallurgical and Materials Transactions. A, Physical Metallurgy and Materials Science

A brazed joint consists of a low-melting point and thin interlayer sandwiched between the high-melting-point base materials, in which the interlayer strength is typically lower than that of the base material. When this butt-joined composite is loaded uniaxially in the direction perpendicular to the plane of the brazing layer, the tensile strength is found to be much higher than that of the braze. This seems to violate the iso-stress condition in such a butt-joint serial configuration. Furthermore, the stress triaxiality has been usually ascribed, but without a quantitative rationalization, as being responsible for this tensile strength enhancement. Here a completemore »« less
