Introduction - methods - applications

Ensuring adequate strength is a critical aspect of the design and construction of drive components, especially when they are exposed to superimposed loads. This is becoming increasingly important as demands on the performance, efficiency, and reliability of machines and systems increase. An understanding of multi-axial loading conditions and the required material properties for reliable dimensioning is essential to the strength calculation.

Nominal stress-based calculation approaches offer a fast and practical method for evaluating component strength with consideration of safety factors and standard specifications. However, the influence of multi-axiality is usually only roughly estimated. A local fatigue analysis can be used to perform detailed analyses of critical component areas. Compared to the nominal stress-based approach, the local stress components typically determined in FE-based component models can be used for higher-quality strength hypotheses and can also can depict complex failure mechanisms, such as in component contact.

When does it make sense to utilize resource-intensive strength verification methods?
How can quick and simple methods be used for reliable design of superimposed loads?
This seminar will address these questions and more.
