A fracture mechanics study of stress resultant intensity factors in stiffened panels employing RKPM meshfree FSDT modeling
Abstract Panel cracking for stiffened panels is investigated based on linear elastic fracture mechanics. Meshfree flat shell formulation and fracture modeling are employed. After investigating stress distribution of the intact stiffened panel, the mode-I and mixed-mode crackings are studied using the stress resultant intensity factors (SRIFs). When the crack tip approaches to the stiffener, deformation around the crack is suppressed due to presence of the stiffeners. The mechanical behaviors are carefully examined by changing crack length, loading conditions and thickness of the main panel and stiffeners. Quantitative evaluation of SRIFs is addressed by comparing with the reference solutions. An in-depth discussion is provided for the meshfree modeling of the panel cracking in the stiffened panels. This series studies are useful for examining crack arrest effect of the stiffened panel due to presence of the stiffeners.
Highlights Mode-I and mixed-mode panel cracking is studied in stiffened panel. RKPM-based meshfree flat shell and fracture modeling is employed. Stress distribution and SRIFs are carefully studied based on linear elastic fracture mechanics. Fracture in stiffened panels are investigated compared with existing reference solutions and experimental results.
