Isogeometric Analysis Prediction of Stress Concentration Factor of Trivariate NURBS-Based Rectangular Plate with Central Elliptical Hole

Article Preview

Abstract:

Experimental, analytical and finite element techniques are commonly known methods used in determining highly localized stress occurring in the body under loading as a result of geometric discontinuities. In this study, we use NURBS-based isogeometric analysis (IGA) to investigate the stress concentration factor (SCF) on three-dimensional geometry with discontinuity feature. The results show that IGA technique is in good agreement with analytical values, thus providing a more effective realistic way of determining SCF.
