Abstract

In this paper, the approximately coupled method of finite element method and boundary element method to obtain efficient and accurate analysis results is proposed for a two-dimensional elasto-static problem with a geometrically abruptly changing part. As the finite element of a two-dimensional problem, three-node and four-node plane stress element is applied, and as the boundary element of a two-dimensional problem, three-node boundary element is applied. In the modeling stage, firstly, an entire analysis target object is modeled as finite elements, and then a geometrically abruptly changing part is modeled as boundary elements. The boundary element is defined using the nodes defined for modeling finite elements. In the analysis stage, finite element analysis is firstly performed on a entire analysis target object, and boundary element analysis is automatically performed afterwards. As for the boundary conditions at boundary element analysis, displacement conditions and stress conditions, which are the results of finite element analysis, are applied. As a numerical example, the analysis results for a two-dimensional elasto-static problem, a plate with a crack, are presented and investigated.

본 논문에서는 유한요소법과 경계요소법을 결합하여 기하학적으로 급변 부위가 있는 이차원 탄성 정적 문제에 대하여 효율적이고 정확한 해석 결과를 얻기 위한 유한요소법과 경계요소법의 근사 결합 방법을 제시한다. 이차원 문제의 유한요소로서는 3절점, 4절점 평면응력 요소를 적용하고, 이차원 문제의 경계요소로는 3절점 경계요소를 적용한다. 모델링 단계에서는 우선 전체 해석 대상을 유한요소로 모델링한 후에 기학학적 급변 부위를 경계요소로 모델링 하는데, 유한요소의 모델링을 위하여 정의된 절점을 이용하여 경계요소를 정의한다. 해석 단계에서는 전체 해석 대상에 대하여 유한요소 해석을 우선적으로 수행하고, 이후에 경계요소 해석을 자동으로 수행하는데, 경계부에서의 경계조건은 유한요소 해석 결과인 변위 조건과 응력 조건을 적용한다. 수치예제로서 이차원 탄성 정적 문제인 균열이 있는 평판에 대한 해석 결과를 제시하고 고찰한다.
