3 Introduction Damage tolerance analysis plays an increasingly important role in assuring integrity and reliability of components Address threat of potential manufacturing or material anomalies Increasing requirement for accurate, efficient fatigue crack growth (FCG) life analysis methods Special challenge: Many possible locations for fatigue cracks to appear For example, hard alpha anomalies in titanium rotors Probabilistic damage tolerance methods can address this threat, but introduce additional efficiency challenges 3

4 Engineering Approach to Damage Tolerance Analysis Characteristics Pre-programmed SIF solutions for simple geometries Sophisticated FCG equations with load interaction models Advantages Very fast execution times Detailed load history analysis Disadvantages SIF solutions are often for simple constant or linear stress profiles Must manually transfer (and interpret) stress and geometry information from component model to fracture model 4

5 New Computational Approach Goal: User-friendly balance of accuracy and efficiency Sophisticated GUI with direct interface to 2D/3D FE models to extract and visualize geometry/stress information Automated construction of optimum simple fracture model geometry New weight function SIF solutions to address complex stress gradients Residual stresses (surface or bulk) addressed via weight function solutions Advanced FCG algorithms directly integrated with probabilistic analysis algorithms to calculate reliability 5

6 2D Finite Element Model Interface in DARWIN Import, visualize 2D FE model & stresses Use mouse to build engineering FCG model Place initial crack Locate and size plate GUI extracts all stress and dimension information for fracture calculation 6

7 3D Finite Element Model Interface 1. Load 3D FE model 3. Slice 3D model to reveal 2D crack growth plane 2. Select crack location & show principal stress plane 4. Build 2D fracture model 7

8 Automatic Fracture Model Generation: Goal and Motivation Goal Given 2D FE model with stress results Initial crack location Automatically determine (no user input) Initial crack type Orientation & size for idealized fracture mechanics plate model giving accurate FCG life results FCG life for specified initial crack size Motivation Reduce variability and errors in the analysis process introduced by the human operator Reduce human time for analysis Especially important for large numbers of calculations 8

9 Automatic Fracture Model Strategy General rules that can be applied to any initial crack location in any general 2D model, set within a rigorous logical framework Addresses the effects of finite component boundaries curved front and side surfaces corners of various angles crack transitions complex stress fields embedded, surface, and corner cracks GUI provides visualization for user review of the generated models 9

10 Automatic Fracture Model Examples 2D axisymmetric finite element mesh Automatically generated fracture mechanics plates for six representative crack locations Circles are estimates of critical crack size 10

11 Life Contour Maps Use auto-plate capability to build FM model at every node in the FE model Calculate FCG life for user-specified (fixed) initial crack size at each node Stress Contours Life Contours 11

12 Life Contour Maps Life contour maps provide guidance for calculation of reliability as well as for design revision Stress contour hot spots and life contour hot spots may be different, due to geometry influences Stress Contours Life Contours 12

15 Zone-Based Risk Assessment In probabilistic damage tolerance, we need to calculate not merely the FCG life, but the overall probability of fracture for the component, given all the potential locations that a crack could occur Discretize component into zones based on similar anomaly distribution, stress, lifetime Place crack at life-limiting location in the zone Total probability of fracture for zone: (probability of having an anomaly) x (POF given an anomaly) Anomaly probability determined by anomaly distribution, zone volume POF given an anomaly is probabilistic FCG calculation POF for disk = sum of zone probabilities As individual zones become smaller (number of zones increases), risk converges down to exact answer (~numerical integration) m

16 Next Automation Step: Reliability Calculation Use auto-plate to generate FCG model at many locations in the component Use life contour map to guide automated zone breakup Give special attention to efficiency: do as few FCG life calculations as possible for adequate accuracy P f a P(N) a c P(a) Target N N 16

17 Multiple Types of Anomalies In some materials, fatigue lifetimes exhibit a multi-modal distribution arising from different formation mechanisms Studies of at AFRL have shown that different failure populations are associated with subsurface or surface crack formation at non-metallic particles or pores Established system reliability methods can be used to predict the probability of failure of a component with multiple anomaly types Life PDFs for single anomalies of each type must be known (parent dists) p ( ) = [ p ] P F d i 1 1 ln 1 λv i i i ( ) = 1 exp λv P F d i i i i 1 P( N i ) measured life parent distribution

20 Residual Stress Issues Residual stresses can introduce significant uncertainty What are the magnitudes of the residual stresses? How might these residual stresses change with cycles/temperature? How might the fracture critical locations change with RS effects? What are the anticipated fatigue lifetimes at these locations? Challenges: Assess fatigue life at many different locations Combine complex service stress fields with complex RS fields Address uncertainty in residual stresses Integrate total risk of fracture over the entire component 20
