Investigation of stresses occurring in rotating cylinders made of Boron carbide (B4C) and Silicon carbide (SIC) materials by using finite element method

Abstract

This paper focuses on some mathematical and numerical aspects of elastic stress. The distribution of elastic stress in rotating cylinders made of Boron carbide (B4C) and Silicon carbide (SIC) materials is analyzed analytically. Boron carbide, which will be Decelerated for projects in the defense industry and automotive fields, is among the precious metals in the world. Silicon carbide is one of the most widely used structural ceramics. silicon carbide is one of the most durable ceramic materials. Boron carbide (B4C) and Silicon carbide (SIC) are used in aircraft industry, unmanned aerial vehicles, electric vehicles. The stress value obtained at the end of the analysis was compared with the ANSYS 2023 R1 program. The results obtained are close to each other. For example, if the results obtained are compared with each other, the tangential stress obtained in the boron rib material is about 35\% higher than that of silicon carbide. The novelty and importance of the research are quite high. Rotating cylinders determined materials are used in aircraft, unmanned aerial vehicles. It is intended to share the results obtained when using two materials with high strength with the literature. The radial stresses are continuously zero at the innermost and outermost parts. Tangential stresses are more than radial stresses. It has been observed that the tangential stresses obtained in the ANSYS 2023 R1 program are higher than the radial stress. Within the scope of the study; the Von Mises yield criterion is taken into account in the plane shape change reference. The findings obtained at the end of the study are shared in graphs. At the end of the study, it is determined that the stresses occurring in the cylinder with silicon carbide (SIC) material were more than Boron carbide (B4C). Moreover, the results are compared among themselves
