Evaluating Singular Stress Fields
Application ID: 125151
A detailed description of these models can be found in our blog post “How Should I Evaluate Singular Stress Fields?”.
The models are:
- notchedStrip.mph – Model for the initial studies of the stress field properties.
- singularityPower.mph – Small model solving the transcendental equation that give the exponent for the stress singularity for corners with different angles.
- stripInternalCorner.mph – FE Verification of singularity strength for different corner angles.
- materialTransition.mph – Shows the effect on stress from of a transition between two different materials.
- percentileMethod.mph – Shows how to perform an evaluation using the percentile method.
This model example illustrates applications of this type that would nominally be built using the following products:
however, additional products may be required to completely define and model it. Furthermore, this example may also be defined and modeled using components from the following product combinations:
The combination of COMSOL® products required to model your application depends on several factors and may include boundary conditions, material properties, physics interfaces, and part libraries. Particular functionality may be common to several products. To determine the right combination of products for your modeling needs, review the Specification Chart and make use of a free evaluation license. The COMSOL Sales and Support teams are available for answering any questions you may have regarding this.
