Abstract:
In this paper, the influence of geometric parameters on the stress concentration factors due to three different types of axial loading on 81 TY tubular structures is studied. Our results reveal that, geometric parameters have a considerable impact on the variation of stress concentration factors on tubular TY-joints under axial loads. Thus, the highest stress concentration factor values are observed on the vertical brace than on the inclined one. The finite element results of the tubular structures were verified by parametric equations and experimental data. A parametric study was carried out by analyses using the non-linear regression method to obtain parametric equations. These equations are used to calculate stress concentration factors and to analyse the fatigue resistance of TY-joints due to axial loads.
