Seam weld shell element model for thin walled structure FE fatigue design
In automotive industry, the FE fatigue analysis of mechanical structures made of steel thin walled parts and seam welded assemblies uses a dedicated technique based on shell element modelling for components and on 1D rigid elements for welds. This method has been validated with several intensive fat...
