Finite Element Simulation of Bending Fretting Fatigue Considering Ratchetting and Cyclic Hardening

Article Preview

Abstract:

Based on a simplified equivalent 2-D plane strain finite element model, the bending fretting fatigue process of 316L stainless steel is simulated numerically by ABAQUS code. In this simulation, the effect of ratchetting on the fretting fatigue process is discussed by implementing an advanced cyclic elasto-plastic constitutive model for cyclic hardening materials into ABAQUS code as a user material subroutine (UMAT). From the numerical simulation, the effect of bending loads on the bending fretting fatigue of 316L stainless steel is addressed, and then the failure lives are predicted by using Smith-Watson-Topper critical plane criteria. Comparison with the corresponding experiments shows that the predicted results are in good agreement with the experimental ones.
