三维I型裂纹尖端应力场半解析模型

A SEMI-ANALYTICAL MODEL FOR THE STRESS FIELD AT THE TIP OF THREE-DIMENSIONAL MODE I CRACK

  • 摘要: 本文旨在建立一种能高效描述三维I型裂纹尖端应力场的半解析模型, 以解决现有弹塑性断裂力学模型(如HRR解及J-Q理论)依赖复杂有限元计算、缺乏便捷解析表达式的问题. 研究基于能量密度等效原理, 推导了平面I型裂纹尖端等效应力的解析表达式, 并进一步通过系统的三维弹塑性有限元分析, 揭示了以能量密度等效单元中值点等效应力归一化后, 裂尖应力分布的规律. 在此基础上, 构建了三维I型裂纹裂尖等效应力场(CESF-3DMIC)模型. 该模型以简洁的幂律形式表达, 其关键参数被明确为与裂纹长度和试样厚度相关的显式函数, 并针对紧凑拉伸(CT)和单边弯曲(SEB)试样给出了具体的参数. 结果表明, CESF-3DMIC模型对两种试样裂尖应力分布的预测与三维有限元结果吻合良好. 相比传统依赖有限元回归的J-Q等方法, 该模型形式简单、参数明确, 无需复杂数值计算即可直接预测裂尖应力场, 为考虑几何约束效应的断裂安全评价与相关理论发展提供了新的解析工具.

     

    Abstract: This study presents a semi-analytical model for the efficient characterization of the stress field at the tip of a three-dimensional Mode I crack. The research addresses key limitations in existing elastoplastic fracture models—such as the HRR solution and J-Q theory—which typically rely on computationally intensive finite element analyses and lack explicit analytical formulations. By applying the principle of energy density equivalence, an analytical expression for the equivalent stress at the tip of a planar Mode I crack is first derived. Subsequently, systematic three-dimensional elastoplastic finite element simulations demonstrate that, when normalized by the equivalent stress at the median point of an energy density equivalent unit, the crack-tip stress distribution is predominantly governed by two dimensionless parameters: the relative crack length (a/W) and the specimen thickness ratio (B/W). Based on these, a Crack-tip Equivalent Stress Field for 3D Mode I Crack (CESF-3DMIC) model is developed. The model adopts a compact power-law formulation, with its key parameters explicitly defined as functions of a/W and B/W. Specific parameters are provided for both compact tension (CT) and single-edged bending (SEB) specimens. Validation against three-dimensional finite element results confirms that the CESF-3DMIC model accurately predicts crack-tip stress distributions in both specimen types. In contrast to conventional methods such as the J-Q approach, which require finite element-based regression techniques, the proposed model offers a direct, parameter-explicit analytical framework. It enables rapid prediction of the crack-tip stress field without reliance on complex numerical computations, thus serving as a practical tool for fracture safety assessments and theoretical developments incorporating geometric constraint effects.
