Analysis of the Fatigue Crack Growth in Pipe Using Finite Element Alternating Method
배관 피로균열 성장 해석을 위한 유한요소 교호법의 적용
Abstract
Finite element alternating method have been suggested and used for assessing the integrity of cracked structures. In the paper, in order to analyze arbitrarily shaped three dimensional cracks, the finite element alternating method is extended. The cracks are modeled as a distribution of displacement discontinuities by the displacement discontinuity method and the symmetric Galerkin boundary element method. Applied the proposed method to three dimensional crack included in the elbow, the efficiency and applicability of the method were demonstrated.
