Research on efficient analysis method and visualization for fatigue strength of welded frames based on ABAQUS
Conducting secondary development on CAE software for post-processing stands as an efficacious approach to evaluate fatigue strength in welded frames of railway vehicles. This paper presents a fatigue strength evaluation program for welded frames
employing ABAQUS as the platform and utilizing Python language along with the ABAQUS/GUI toolkit. This program is devised to rapidly extract data from result files
process them
establish local coordinate systems of base metal and welds
and generate comprehensive material utilizations at evaluation points in the local coordinate systems based on the DVS 1612 standard
and write them into result files
enabling rapid analysis and visualization of fatigue strength in welded frames. The proposed approach offers an efficient and feasible way for evaluating fatigue strength in welded frames. This study provides valuable insights for extending the applications of ABAQUS secondary development for post-processing in other domains.
