5 Durability Why is it important? Warranty Costs High rate of return is large liability Example: Heavy truck Competitive Advantage Reputation for reliability Example: Longest lasting appliance, safest aircraft Performance Over-engineering reduces performance Example: Fuel economy on heavy car Page 5

17 Dynamic versus Static Failures Cyclic Fatigue refers to gradual degradation and eventual failure that occurs under loads which vary with time, and which are lower than the static strength of the metallic specimen, component or structure concerned. The Static Strength is the load which causes failure in one application. Page 17

18 Static Strength Aircraft Wing Bending Test Bend till Break Page 18

19 Dynamic (Cyclic) Loading Dynamic Loads below Static Strength vary with time Page 19

20 Definitions Durability is the ability of something to perform its function longlasting and repeatedly. Failure is Industry specific. For example: Crack growth versus crack initiation Page 20

22 Crack Growth Fatigue Failures in Real Life Aloha airlines flight #243 April 28 th, 1988 Maui, HI Fatigue failure occurred due to repeated pressurization of the cabin causing a small crack to rupture in the fuselage, killing a stewardess. 22 Unrestricted copyright LMS Siemens International AG Page 22 Siemens PLM Software

24 Definitions Durability is the ability of something to perform its function longlasting and repeatedly. Failure is Industry specific. For example: Crack growth versus crack initiation Fatigue is the progressive and localized structural damage that occurs when a material is subjected to cyclic loading. Stress and strain are used to calculate fatigue damage. Damage Measure of fatigue. When = 1 by Miner s Rule, failure occurs. Fatigue Life Inverse of damage (Example: 0.5 damage, is fatigue life of 2) Page 24

25 Stress σ = F n /A F n How to reduce Stress? Either: Increase Area Reduce Force A * Normal Stress Page 25

26 Stress σ = F n /A F n How to reduce Stress? Either: Increase Area Reduce Force A * Normal Stress Page 26

27 Stress σ = F n /A F n Either: Increase Area Reduce Force * Normal Stress Reduced crosssectional area causes stress concentration A Effective Crosssectional area Page 27

28 What about Simulation? Finite Element Models are used F n When Fn=1: referred to as a Static Unit Load Case Stress is calculated at each element as opposed to a predetermined location because real geometry is more complex than this... * Normal Stress Page 28

35 Materials Terms Creep: is a time-dependent deformation of a material while under an applied load that is below its yield strength Hardness: is the resistance of a material to localized deformation Toughness: the ability of a metal to deform plastically and to absorb energy in the process before fracture Yield strength or yield point: of a material is defined in engineering and materials science as the stress at which a material begins to deform plastically. Ductility: is a solid material's ability to deform under tensile stress The following list ranks metals from the greatest ductility to least: gold, silver, platinum, iron, nickel, copper, aluminum, zinc, tin, and lead The ductility of steel varies depending on the alloying constituents. Increasing levels of carbon decreases ductility Brittle: A material when subjected to stress, it breaks without significant deformation (strain) Ultimate tensile strength (UTS), often shortened to tensile strength (TS) or ultimate strength, is the maximum stress that a material can withstand while being stretched or pulled before necking. Point at which load on specimen decreases Page 35
