function of Z. One will take T0 = 100 °C in order to obtain the closing of the lip, in the vicinity of the skin
part, at the beginning of the thermal shock.

Characteristics of modeling
Non stationary thermal calculation precedes mechanical calculation. Two calculations are done using
even mesh to avoid the phenomena of smoothing.

3.2
Characteristics of the mesh
The mesh consists of 8651 nodes and 2772 elements, including 2732 elements QUA8 and 40 elements
TRI6.
The radial density of the mesh is determined by successive tests in order to reduce to 1% the variation
between the theoretical solution and the numerical solution, as well from the thermal point of view as
thermomechanics, in the case of the bar not fissured.
The height of the half-model is fixed arbitrarily at 5 times radius R. One supposes a priori that the effect
limitation of size of the mesh in direction Z on the factor of intensity of the stresses is
lower than 1%.
An indeformable block, located under the lip, was with a grid in order to manage the contact without induced friction
by the closing of the lip.

In the case of axisymmetric calculations, to obtain the total rate of refund, it is necessary to divide it
rate of refund obtained with ASTER by R
fissure
= has (cf Reference material
[R7.02.01] - page18).
** Values obtained with the formula of IRWIN in plane deformations, by supposing that K
II
= 0, and
by taking G calculated by ASTER, which does not allow the automatic calculation of KI in
axisymmetric.

The raised maximum change is 30% on G (Fo = 1), of 14% on KI (Fo = 1).
The maximum relative variation on the temperature in bottom of fissure, compared to the analytical solution
(summoned on 900 terms), is lower A 1%.
The maximum relative variation on
zz in the bar before cracking, compared to the analytical solution
summoned on 900 terms, with the site of the later bottom of fissure, is lower than 0,5%.
With ASTER, in axisymmetric mode, the stress field obtained is following form:
SIXX
SIYY
SIZZ
SIXY
and the associated stresses are:
SIRR SIZZ SITT SIRZ
To calculate the values of reference, we use the curve in Log/Log (page 5). Precision with
reading of the values not being very good, we can estimate that the results on the rate of
restitution of energy G are not too far away from the reference.
It should be noted that the rate of refund of energy G is invariable on the crowns of calculation.

Summary of the results
With regard to the bar not fissured, the Aster results in temperature and stress are very
close relations of the reference (less than 1% maximum for the temperature and less than 0,5% maximum
for the stresses). On the other hand, for the rate of refund of energy, the Aster results are
moved away from the reference since we raise a maximum change of 30% for FO = 0,001, with one
precision announced of 5% on the reference solution.
