A finite-element based numerical tool for Ni47Ti44Nb9 SMA structures design application to tightening rings

Résumé

This paper deals with the design of Ni47Ti44Nb9 Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) tightening components. The tightening of an SMA ring on an elastic pipe is analyzed using the finite element code ABAQUS® and a UMAT subroutine developed in our group to model the specific behavior of Ni47Ti44Nb9 SMA. Main features of the thermomechanical model implemented in this UMAT routine are briefly recalled.Numerical predictions are validated using experimental tightening pressures obtained on a test bed developed in this work. The validation strategy is documented and the results for different ring thicknesses are presented. This finite element tool is then applied to a parametric study of the influence of ridges on the tightening pressure. Eventually, geometrical defects like out of roundness are considered.
