1990, 5(4): 297-301,370-371.
Abstract:
The incremental constitutive equations of thermoelastoplastic creep analysis has been derived under the conditions of variable temperatures and loadings.The finite element basic formulation of the plane stress state has been deduced and the program MTEPCA of its thermoelastoplastic creep analysis under cyclic loading has been worked out.Two sophisticated problems in the programming have been tackled.One is how to improve computational accuracy under the influence of various thermoelastoplastic creep factors.For this purpose the subincremental method and the Newton iteration are applied to calculation of the stress and the elastoplastic weight coefficient respectively,besides a high accurate method is proposed for yield surface correction.The other is how to deal with Δα z and Δε z of plane stress problem becauase they are not equal to zero.The solution of this problem is also provided in the program.Several numerical examples are given to check the reliability of the MTEPCA program.The stress strain hysteresis loops of the point A (danger point) on the analogue sample under cyclic loading are analysed for the structural integrity research.

Abstract:
According to the theory of local strain fatigue,the fatigue experiments for the 30CrMnSiA disk have been completed on a multichannel radial loading fatigue rig (“Ferris”whell).A good number of the crack propagation curves of the groove bottoms in the disk have been obtained.The calculations show that the median LCF life to crack initiation is 8642 (cycles).In comparison with cyclic rotating tests,the test period on a multi channel radial loading fatigue test rig can be shortened greatly and the test data can be obtained easily.A smooth round bar specimen experiment method for predicting the LCF life of groove bottom in the disk is provided,which is better than the Morrow method.For the median LCF life,the ratio of the experimental life to the predited life is 1.2.

A LARGE ANALYTICAL DEFORMATION METHOD FOR PREDICTION OF DISK BURST SPEED
Hong Qilin, Wang Ping
1990, 5(4): 321-324,371-372.
Abstract:
A new method has been elaborated to predict the burst speed of aeroengine disks.The disks should overspeed or even break due to malfunction of control system,shaft decoupling or afterburning failure.In order to avoid catastrophic failure of an engine,it is required to allow a margin of the disk burst speed.When the maximum rotor speed approaches to the disk burst speed,the plastic strain attains to large value in strain hardening range.So the concepts of material and geometrical nonlinearities are employed,but it is very difficult to obtain the solution of the double nonlinear problems.An approximate large deformation large analytical method is proposed firstly.The basic equations are derived according to the variable thickness and temperature of the disks.Secondly,the computational procedure is described and the burst speeds of four tested disks are obtained from the calculations.At last,the calculated results are compared with the test data,and the differences are less than four percent.Therefrom,it is proved that the new method is simple,convinent and accurate for engineering application as well as it is applicable to a wide variety of disks.

Gao Deping, Li Qinghong
1990, 5(4): 335-338,373.
Abstract:
Investigation on blade damage by bird impact is of great importance in the development of modern aero engines.The high speed dynamics of the bird impact on blades has been studied analytically and experimentally.The response analysis of the bird impact on the blade is a geometrical and material non linear,transient large displacement problem.A program system for the non linear transient response analysis has been developed and the loading characteristics of the bird impact are outlined.Based on the sensibility analysis of structural response to loading,a simple effective loading model of the bird impact is presented.A computer program of model analysis for the bird impact on blades is developed.The calculational results show that the bird impact on the blade at the velocity about 200m/s can be characterized as compressible fluid.The normal impact experiments with artificial birds have been completed,and the course of the bird impact was recorded by the high speed photography.It is proved again that the bird colliding against the blade behaves like compressible fluid.

Pen Kejian, Sheng Yuansheng, Zheng Guanghua
1990, 5(4): 343-346,374.
Abstract:
According the principles of the inequality variations,the existence and the uniqueness of the solution have been verified for elastic contact problems,which contain friction forces between the contact surfaces.Thus the contact problems are made to be equivalent to the quardratic programming problems.By using the basic idea of supplement,the objects of a contact system is discreted and then lumped to the contact boundaries,then an resultant stiffness matrix is formed and a linear supplementary equation of non negative variables,υ adn λ,is also derived in the light of the non penetration condition of the normal displacements of the contact surfaces and the Conlumb friction law,etc.By the direct use of the Lemke algorithm of quardratic programming method,the scope of solution is limited to the contact boundaries.The whole field information is therefore obtained from further solution of the subelements.Such an algorithm enables to eliminate effectively the convergence instability which used to appear in the iteration methods in solving the problems.The results of calculations of the lug tooths contact stresses are fitted with the experimental data quite well.

COMPUTATION FOR CONTACT PROBLEM OF A DISK-BLADE COUPLED COMPONENT
Tang Guoan, Ding Haicheng
1990, 5(4): 349-351,377.
Abstract:
Contact stress of a disk blade coupled component is analyzed by numerical method.The contact problem is reduced to a problem of quadratic programming with linear inequality constraints(LCQP).Objective function of the LCQP is derived from the principle of minimum potential energy of elastic bodies in combination with finite element method.In order to formulate the constrain equations,an imaginary media is introduced between the two contact surfaces.Then the displacement compatibility condition on the contact region can be considered as to make the imaginary media have non negative volume during deformation.Such geometric condition will be presribed by a set of linear inequalities after discretization.Besides,static condensation technique is also used to reduce the degree of freedoms of the LCQP problem.A practical problem is estimated by our method and SAP5 software.These two results are in good agreement.

Wang Wenliang, Zhu Nongshi, Xu Jiahua
1990, 5(4): 352-356,374.
Abstract:
The success of implementing the mode analysis in the structural integrity research depends to a large extent on the ability to extract normal modes of the structures.In this paper,a new technique is proposed to combine the group theory algorithm and double compatible substructure method for analyzing rotationally symmetric(Cn)structures.In this method,only one sector(1/n part of a structure)is taken and considered so as to obtain the normal modes of the whole structure.But for a large complicated structure,this sector still contains a lot of degrees of freedom(DOF)and is not suitable for direct solution by finite element method.For this reason a substructure method-double compatible mode synthesis method is employed.This technique enhance the extraction efficiency with the accuracy ensured by considerable reduction of synthetic scale through elimination of interface DOF,a numerical example is given to illustrate the merits of the presented technique.

Wang Hao, Wang Wenliang
1990, 5(4): 357-360,375.
Abstract:
A numerical approach is developed for natural vibration analysis of turbomachinery disk with small mistuning blades by using modal synthesis technique.Due to lack of rotational periodicity,the group theory method for the tuned bladed disk assemblies is not applicable to the mistuned ones.According to the matrix peturbation theory,the modes used for synthesis in this paper are taken from a tuned bladed disk corresponding to the small mistuning one.This new technique keeps the advantages of the group theory method and makes the final eigenvalue problem of small size.A computer program has been written to analyse the natural vibration characteristics of turbomachinery disk with small mistuning blades.The computational results prove that the method is very efficient.

Abstract:
From mathematical statistics of test data has been drawn the following conclusion:the low cycle fatigue life of disks scatters due to their size difference.The cylic stress strain curve and the strain life relationship of a materical must consider requirements of the survival probability and believable degree when the low cycle fatigue life of a disk is estimated with the partial stress strain method.This paper also provides an approximate correction method for the preliminary estimation of the low cycle fatigue life of a disk.

Qiu Chunhang, Yu Duokui, Liang Jixin, Li Dong
1990, 5(4): 367-368,378.
Abstract:
A program named the STAP for the stator blade analysis with preprocessor and postprocessor is briefly introduced.Using the mesh generation and substructure assemblage functions of the STAP,it is possible to accomplish conveniently the stress and vibration analyses of the stator blade if only the coordinates of points on the contour of a blade and a few of mechanical properties of materials are inputted.Since mechanical properties,particularly Youngs modulus and coefficient of thermal expansion,are temperature dependent,it is very important to take this fact into account for calculating the stress of a cooled gas turbine blade.For this end the STAP provides for user a finite element methed with a temperature dependence on the properties.In structure modelling,in order to reduce the number of unknown variables and to describe the complex boundary conditions,the STAP is possessed of the function of Master Slave relations between the nodal displacements.
