Crack Initiation, Propagation and Stress Intensity Factor of Rectangular Plate with Circular Hole by FEA Approach
Abstract: The study of crack behavior in a plate with hole is a considerable importance in the design to avoid the failure. This situation has a look at offers with investigation of stress intensity factor, von-mises stress (ϭ von-mises) at the finite center cracked plate subjected to uniform tensile loading depends at the assumptions of linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) and plane strain problem. The stress intensity factors mode I (KI) …

Evaluation of J-Integral and Fatigue Crack Growth Rate of Semi-elliptical Crack in Compressor Blade
Abstract: Gas turbine compressor blades are subjected to centrifugal, gas bending and vibratory loads. This repeated loading and unloading can reduce the life of compressor blades. This research aims at the estimation of fatigue crack growth rate of various three-dimensional cracks in a compressor blade considering the J-integral calculations for a semi-elliptical crack, subjected to centrifugal loading. Static stress analysis was carried out to ascertain the critical region or crack zone …

Structural Performance Evaluation of Circular Perforated Plates under Mechanical Loading
Abstract: Circular perforated plates are structurally critical components in aerospace, automotive, and marine sectors, where perforation-induced stress concentrations govern failure under mechanical loading. This study conducts a systematic finite element analysis of stress distribution, deformation, and interlaminar behavior in aluminum and glass-epoxy laminates ([−45/45/90/0]S and [−45/45/90/0]AS) under uniform transverse pressure with clamped-free boundary conditions. Four perforation configurations—no hole, central hole, single-series, and 25-hole grid—were evaluated using ANSYS Shell-181, verified against Kirchhoff–Love, …

FAILURE ANALYSES OF 16MM THICK SA 516 GR 70 AUTO CLAVE
Abstract: With the acceleration of global industrialization, there is a demand for high- or low-pressure storage of liquids or gases. Because of the complicated operating conditions that will inevitably encounter a possible hazard, pressure vessel design is a critical responsibility. Previous failure studies have revealed that the presence of local loads and discontinuities increases pressure vessel fracture. As a result, a detailed examination of pressure vessel steel from the standpoint of …
