Abstract:

Purpose. To design new models of the deformation process of corrosive beam structural systems with variable geometry characteristics and effective numerical algorithms to solve problems of their stress-strain state and longevity.

Methodology. Reasons resulting in the emergency destruction of multiple-element metal structures were analyzed. Research methods and design methods involving material defectiveness were considered. The ways to improve their efficiency were proposed based on the analysis. The simulation of beam structural components behavior affected by of quasistatic, cyclic, and random loads operating in an aggressive environment forms the basis of the research. The special attention was paid to the influence of different types of deformation on the corrosive wear of such structural components as well as the possibility of their safe exploitation.

Findings. Application of new models of corrosive surface allowed us to design the modified beam finite component with variable rigidity. It will allow us to take into account the change in section shape caused by an aggressive environment and to decrease both the problem order of modified finite element (MFE) and the order of differential equation system (DES) describing corrosive process. Expressions for rigidity matrix components such as finite elements (FE) cannot depend on cross-section type if it is possible to represent it as the total of rectangular fragments. To improve the efficiency of computational algorithm and simplify its logics, it is expedient to determine the type of active constraint before solving the problem of longevity computation. We propose to use two neural networks: to determine the constraint type (neural network 1), and parameters of DES numerical solution for each of the constraints (neural network 2).

Based on the analysis of the factors that affect both the type of active constraint and the accuracy of DES solution, we have assumed the following input network parameters: rolled section number, corrosion rate, and initial stress σ₀.

The constraint type depends on the neural network with threshold function of output element activation. The rational value of numerical solution parameters depends on a network with sigmoid activation function.

Neural networks were controlled by the genetic algorithm and algorithm of back propagation of error.

Originality. The model of a corrosive surface has been improved. It was used for the development of rigidity matrix for modified variable-rigidity beam finite element. A modified variable-rigidity beam FE has been designed. The rational parameters of numerical procedures have been developed using neuron networks. This may help us to obtain the solution with an error being less than the maximum admissible value with minimum computational costs.

Practical value. The research contributes to the improvement of the efficiency of solving stress-strain state problems and determination of the longevity of corrosive beam metal structural systems.
