A Corotational Total Lagrangian Finite Element Analysis with Application to the Aircraft Tire

Publication: Engineering, Construction, and Operations in Space V

Abstract

A total Lagrangian finite element scheme for arbitrarily large displacements and rotations is applied to a section of an isotropic circular toroidal shell and an aircraft tire. The scheme decomposes the motion into stretches and rigid-body rotations, describing the deformed state in terms of local engineering measures: the Jaumann stresses and strains. Local and layer-wise thickness stretching and shear warping functions are used to model the three-dimensional behavior of the shells. The finite element model successfully models the bi-curved shell as well as the complex geometry of the aircraft tire under inflation and contact loads.
