Development of a Numerical Prediction Method for the Strain Energy Density of Welded Joints Using Structural Stresses Derived from Nodal Forces by Simone Lucertini, Giulia Morettini, Filippo Cianetti

“…This paper describes the numerical prediction of the fatigue strength at the toe of steel fillet-welded joints in conditions of HCF, comparing and integrating results from an energy-based approach based on the Average Strain Energy Density (A-SED) and structural stresses derived using the nodal forces approach (Mesh-Insensitive) on shell FE models. The analysis considers plates of different thicknesses and weld sizes. …”
