Effect Factors Study on Ultimate Strength of Aluminum Stiffened Plates under Cyclic Loading

Abstract:

Nonlinear finite element method is used in this paper to research the ultimate strength characteristics of aluminum stiffened plates under uniaxial tension-compression cyclic loading. This paper focused on the effect of the distribution mode of HAZ, the range of HAZ and different cyclic loading process on the ultimate strength of aluminum stiffened plates. The results obtained have a certain reference value to the design and manufacture of aluminum stiffened plates.
