The aim of this study is to model three dimensional surface crack problems in fillet welds. It is assumed that weld material has the same material properties with the sheet metals. The surface crack is considered to occur at two regions; one at the weld root and the other at the weld toe. The surface crack is assumed to have a semi elliptical crack front profile. The surface crack problem is analyzed under mechanical loading and the models are built up by three dimensional finite elements. Around the crack front, strain singularity is taken into account by using degenerated 20 node quarter point solid elements. The main results of this work are the stress intensity factors around the crack front for the test specimen model subjected to axial and bending loads.

Three dimensional fracture analysis of FGM coatings
İnan, Özgür; Dağ, Serkan; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2004)
The main objective of this study is to model the three dimensional surface cracking problem in Functionally Graded Material (FGM) coatings bonded to homogeneous substrates. The FGM coating is assumed to be a (ZrO2) ا (Ti-6Al-4V) layer. Homogeneous ceramic, metal ا rich, ceramic ا rich and linear variation material compositions are considered in the analyses. The surface crack is assumed to have a semi ا circular crack front profile. The surface crack problem in the FGM coating ا substrate system is examined...
A finite elements based approach for fracture analysis of welded joints in construction machinery
Karagöz, Taner; Dağ, Serkan; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2007)
This study aims to develop a computer program to perform finite elements based fracture mechanics analyses of three dimensional surface cracks in T-welded joints of construction machinery. The geometrical complexity of the finite elements models and the requirement of large computer resources for the analyses necessitate the use of shell elements for general stress distribution optimization. A sub-modeling technique, together with a shell to solid conversion method, enables the user to model a local region ...
Three dimensional mixed mode fracture analysis of functionally graded materials
Köşker, Sadık; Dağ, Serkan; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2007)
The main objective of this study is to model and analyze a three dimensional inclined semi-elliptic surface crack in a Functionally Graded Material (FGM) coating bonded to a homogeneous substrate with a bond coat. The parametric analyses on FGMs are based upon zirconia-yttria (ZrO2-8wt%-Y2O3) FGM coating bonded to a substrate made of a nickel-based superalloy. It is assumed that there is a nickel-chromiumaluminumzirconium (NiCrAlY) bond coat between the FGM coating and substrate. Metal-rich, linear variatio...
Axisymmetric finite cylinder with rigid ends and a circumferential edge crack
Durucan, Ayşe Ruşen; Geçit, M. Ruşen; Department of Engineering Sciences (2010)
An axisymmetric finite cylinder with rigid ends and a circumferential edge crack is considered in this study. The finite cylinder is under the action of uniformly distributed loads at two rigid ends. Material of the finite cylinder is assumed to be linearly elastic and isotropic. This finite cylinder problem is solved by considering an infinite cylinder containing an internal ring-shaped crack located at z=0 plane and two penny-shaped rigid inclusions located at z=±L planes. General expressions of the infin...
Process characterization of composite structures manufactured using resin impregnation techniques
Miskbay, Adem Onur; Parnas, Kemal Levend; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2009)
The aim of this study is to investigate and compare the properties of two layer carbon epoxy composite plates manufactured using various resin impregnation techniques; Resin Transfer Molding (RTM), Light RTM (LRTM), Vacuum Assisted RTM (VARTM) and Vacuum Packaging (VP). Throughout the study a different packaging method was developed and named Modified Vacuum Packaging (BP). The mechanical properties of composite plates manufactured are examined by tensile tests, compressive tests, in-plane shear tests and t...
