Abstract

A failure happens within the camshaft of the minibus when the vehicle is in utilize. The camshaft was a fracture within the bearing between the primary cylinder exhaust valve and the second cylinder suction. This simulation aims to find the causes of camshaft failure utilizing the finite element method with a static structural approach, including simulations of deformation, strain, stress, fatigue life (stress-life and strain-life), and cracks. The method used in this paper is the finite element method with a static structural approach by ANSYS software. The camshaft material is a gray cast iron designed using Solidworks. Pre-processing includes meshing with a size of 3 mm. The value of loading force (1348.28 N) and torque (113400 Nmm) are fixed, and the boundary conditions are varied. Processing includes the process of computation and post-processing into a part that displays the results. The simulation results show that for all the deformation and strain values that are in the elasticity area of the material, the maximum and minimum stress which is below the strength of the material, the location of the maximum values of deformation, strain, and stress is not at the fault location. The simulation of fatigue life both in stress-life and strain-life results in infinite cycles, which is above 106 cycles, while the simulation of cracks results in a decrease in the cycle. Based on the simulation results with the above parameters to the camshaft, it was found that a failure was caused by a defect characterized by reduced fatigue life at the same loading conditions.

Abstract

Corrosion and mechanical issues in high-strength X100 steel pipelines present major difficulties for the safety and dependability of energy transport systems. This research investigates the joint impacts of defect shape and strain rate on stress distribution as well as electrochemical behavior through COMSOL Multiphysics simulations. Findings show that defects with elevated aspect ratios generate intense stress gradients, resulting in focused plastic deformation and the onset of cracks. Additionally, higher strain rates worsen stress concentration and speed up anodic and cathodic reactions, amplifying hydrogen embrittlement and the deterioration of materials. As time passes, the redistribution of stress due to degradation leads to structural instability and increases the likelihood of failure. These results highlight the significance of combining mechanical and electrochemical analyses to gain a deeper insight into degradation mechanisms. This research offers important perspectives for enhancing defect surveillance, refining cathodic protection methods, and guaranteeing the enduring reliability of pipelines in dynamic and corrosive settings.
