Abstract Considering experimental testing data is costly, and sensor data is often sparse, while simulation analysis provides overall strength information with lower accuracy, a digital twin framework is proposed for full-field structural strength assessment and prediction. The framework is mainly divided into two stages. In the offline stage, the simulation model of the structure is established, and the sensor layouts are completed. Then, the DNN pre-training model is constructed based on the reduced simulation data. In the online stage, the experimentally measured data are predicted to obtain the time-series sensors data, and the traditional transfer learning… More >

Abstract This paper deals with the local approach based on the Notch Stress Intensity Factors (NSIFs) to analyse the fatigue behavior of welded joints. In transverse load carrying fillet-welded joints, failure may occur either at the toe or at the root, depending on the geometry. At the toe, due to the flank angles that are usually encountered in practice, mode I local stresses are singular, while mode II stresses are not. Conversely, at the root of the particular joints analysed in the present paper both mode I and mode II stresses are singular and must be… More >
