Abstract :
In order to ensure calculation accuracy of the crack tip stress area with finite element method, a new meshing method of the crack tip stress area was proposed based on the existing meshing methods, and thermal stress of the crack tip area was calculated by finite element program, compared with the results of the fracture mechanics analysis shows that the meshing method in the paper is feasibility and reliability.
