Sensitivity analysis of the GTN damage parameters at different temperature for dynamic fracture propagation in X70 pipeline steel using neural network

Abstract

In this paper, the initial and maximum load was studied using the Finite Element Modeling (FEM) analysis during impact testing (CVN) of pipeline X70 steel. The Gurson-Tvergaard-Needleman (GTN) constitutive model has been used to simulate the growth of voids during deformation of pipeline steel at different temperatures. FEM simulations results used to study the sensitivity of the initial and maximum load with GTN parameters values proposed and the variation of temperatures. Finally, the applied artificial neural network (ANN) is used to predict the initial and maximum load for a given set of damage parameters X70 steel at different temperatures, based on the results obtained, the neural network is able to provide a satisfactory approximation of the load initiation and load maximum in impact testing of X70 Steel.

Impact of earthquake’s epicenter distance to failure of the embankment – A seismic prediction

“…Artificial neural networks (ANN) can significantly support geotechnical engineering designs as they can be used for the integration, prediction, and classification of results [49][50][51][52]. ANN is also commonly used for results of investigation forecasting, categorization outcome of a phenomenon study, association of data, and filtering interpreted data for solving several engineering problems [53][54][55][56][57]. An ANN is created from input, hidden, and output layers, with neurons performing at each layer [52].…”

Flexural behavior of delta and bi-delta cold-formed steel beams: experimental investigation and numerical analysis

“…inite element analysis provides a cost-effective solution to many engineering problems given the cost and time required to manufacture and create tests of actual physical models. This is why, in this article, a numerical study by finite elements is carried out using the Abaqus 6.14 software through a nonlinear structural analysis [21,22], the choice of the Abaqus software is thanks to these great performances in the numerical analysis, Finite element modeling goes through several steps starting with the creation of a geometric model of the structure, then the integration of the behavior of the material and the boundary conditions for each element which is then divided into smaller forms elements connected to specific nodes (the mesh) and analysis should be performed [4,15,[23][24][25][26][27][28][29].…”
