Crucial for the design of such lightweight structures is the knowledge about the bonding strength. The bonding strength is the result of the bond formation depending on the present transient kinematic, kinetic and thermal states during the welding process being directly determined by the welding process parameters. Despite several years of empirical research, no reliable numerical modelling approach exists for the RFW process to analyse the bonding strength based on these transient state variables. For this reason, an improvement of the bond formation and therefore an increase in the bonding strength can only be tested experimentally. The main motivation of this paper is to develop an appropriate modelling approach for the estimation of the bonding strength for friction welded lightweight structures manufactured of an aluminium alloy and a structural steel. Therefore, a couple of aluminium alloy and steel welding experiments with different process parameters were performed and subsequently analysed concerning to the resulting bonding strength. Moreover, all the welding experiments were simulated in regard to the corresponding welding process in order to determine the present kinematic, kinetic and thermal state variables, like the strain rate, the stress and the temperature. Thus, a model for the characterization of the bond formation can be developed, which allows a correlation between the bond formation and the resulting bond strength based on the chosen welding process parameters. Finally, the model will be examined and discussed in terms of its plausibility and applicability.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":56133,"journal":{"name":"Finite Elements in Analysis and Design","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2023-11-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71516667","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditional projection-based reduced order models (ROMs) fail to resolve these issues, even for second-order elliptic PDEs commonly found in engineering applications. To address this, we propose an alternative nonintrusive strategy to build a ROM, that combines classical proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) with a suitable neural network (NN) model to account for the small scales. Specifically, we employ sparse mesh-informed neural networks (MINNs), which handle both spatial dependencies in the solutions and model parameters simultaneously.

Mechanized tunneling, although it requires high initial investments compared to other tunneling methods, offers a safe and productive way to construct urban tunnels. In the mechanized tunneling process, the lining plays a critical role to provide the support for internal structures, i.e roads, facilities. At the same time, it helps stabilize the ground condition. Together with the jacking system, the lining provides the mean to thrust the tunnel shield (TBM) during excavation. In this work, we address the problem of effective modeling and simulation of the tunnel lining segment. The objective is to demonstrate a systematic and versatile approach to analyze the tunnel lining in different practical scenarios. In terms of modeling, a BIM-based approach is used, which connects the user-friendly software interface used in daily engineering practice with effective simulation tools. The proposed approach utilizes high-order definition of geometry in the design model as well as parametric model definitions to reconstruct the corresponding high-order numerical models. This results in a high-accuracy and computationally low-cost model to analyze a complex structure including an interaction with the soil based on a nonlinear surface springs model. In addition, it allows to analyze the stress and bending moment in the lining segment with high accuracy.

This paper introduces a method for determining all six stress components for a cantilever-type beam that is subjected to concentrated end loads. The method considers an inhomogeneous cross-section and employs cylindrically orthotropic material properties. Notably, this approach does not necessitate prior knowledge of elastic and shear centres. It is founded on the formulation of a displacement field incorporating unknown in-plane distortion and warping functions. These are then solved through a straightforward finite element procedure. The efficacy of the method is validated by a series of numerical examples that align with analytical results. Furthermore, a benchmark example for cylindrically orthotropic cross-sections is proposed. As a practical demonstration, an analysis is performed on a real sawn timber cross-section with material parameters representative of Norway spruce. The findings reveal significant disparities in the maximum stresses when compared to conventional engineering approaches. In this specific instance, the maximum longitudinal normal stress resulting from bending is approximately 20 % higher than the outcomes of typical engineering methods.
