Fracture Load Predictions in Additively Manufactured ABS U-Notched Specimens Using Average Strain Energy Density Criteria

This paper provides a methodology for the prediction of fracture loads in additively manufactured ABS material containing U-notches.

description This paper provides a methodology for the prediction of fracture loads in additively manufactured ABS material containing U-notches. The approach is based on the Average Strain Energy Density (ASED) criterion, which assumes that the material being analysed develops fully linear-elastic behaviour. Thus, in those cases where the material has a certain (non-negligible) amount of non-linear behaviour, the ASED criterion needs to be corrected. In this sense, in this paper, the ASED criterion is also combined with the Equivalent Material Concept (EMC) and the Fictitious Material Concept (FMC), both being corrections in which the non-linear real material is substituted by a linear equivalent or fictitious material, respectively. The resulting methodologies have been applied to additively manufactured ABS U-notched single-edge-notched bending (SENB) specimens combining five different notch radii (0, 0.25, 0.5, 1 and 2 mm) and three different raster orientations (0/90, 45/−45 and 30/−60). The results obtained demonstrate that both the ASED-EMC and the ASED-FMC combined criteria provide more accurate predictions than those obtained directly through the ASED criterion, with the ASED-EMC criterion generally providing safe more accurate predictions, with an average deviation from the experimental fracture loads between +1.0% (predicted loads higher than experimental loads) and −7.6% (predicted loads lower than experimental loads).
