Theoretical Analysis and Experimental Verification of the Stress Concentration Factor at the Steel Tube-welded Hollow Sphere Connection Node

摘要

In this paper, the author uses ANSYS, the software of finite element analysis, to establish the finite element model, the hot spot stress value of different connection structures of steel tube-welded hollow sphere under uniaxial elongation has been analyzed, the theoretical stress concentration factor of this joint has been obtained. Through the static test on the four typical test-piece, 26 steel tube-welded hollow spherical nodes in total, the actually measured stress concentration factor of the joints has been obtained. The theoretical analysis basically coincides with the law of stress concentration factor obtained from the test results.
