  1. 1. A MASTER THESIS ON THE PARAMETRIC WELD-DESIGN EVALUATION IN CRANE LOADER BODY USING NOTCH STRESS ANALYSIS

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner

    Author : Jon Skagersten; [2011]
    Keywords : Factorial design; effective notch method; fatigue life estimation; design of experiments.;

    Abstract : This thesis has been conducted at Cargotec Sweden AB as a case study on the loader body of the HIAB XS 144 crane. The loader body is the innermost part in the cranes arm-system and its fatigue life is critical to the operational life of the whole crane. READ MORE

  2. 2. Fatigue life of butt welds - a numerical study on the influence of real geometry

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Karthickeyan Arasu; []
    Keywords : Real weld geometry; fatigue life; edge offset; weld toe radius; crack propagation; transfer function; Monte Carlo simulation; Verklig svetsgeometri; utmattningslivslängd; kantförskjutning; svetsradie; sprickutbredning; överföringsfunktion; Monte Carlo simulering;

    Abstract : Welds play a crucial role in the product portfolio of GKN Aerospace. For ease of manufacturing and repairability, butt welds are preferred in the aerospace industry. Weld regions undergo local distortions during manufacturing due to the external heat-input, and the resulting local geometries are complex and stochastic in nature. READ MORE
