文摘工程结构在制造工艺过程中或使用期间会产生裂纹,对结构断裂路径的预测和研究是防治工程安全问题发生的重要手段。在考虑裂纹尖端应力场常数项T应力的基础上对传统的最大周向应力准则(Maximum tangential stress criterion,MTS)和最小应变能密度因子准则(Minimum strain energy density criterion,SED)进行修正,采用Python语言对ABAQUS的前、后处理和有限元计算模块进行二次开发,通过计算最优解的粒子群算法(Particle swarm optimization,PSO)将修正后的准则编入裂纹自动扩展程序脚本中。利用上述二次开发程序对初始纯Ⅰ型裂纹的扩展路径进行模拟,结果表明:采用ABAQUS脚本程序模拟结果与相关文献实验结果吻合,表明了程序的有效性,进而实现考虑T应力的多种断裂准则对裂纹扩展路径的预测;当T应力值处于一定范围内时,修正的MTS准则无法预测裂纹发生的偏转现象,扩展路径呈直线,此时可采用修正的SED准则进行预测。
