Abstract

To effectively improve the accuracy of total life analysis， the finite element method is used to predict the fatigue durability of exhaust systems in this paper． A method of the wholelifespan analysis based on dynamic responses is proposed by combining the nominal stress method with dynamic fatigue analysis． The method applies modal frequency response analysis to calculate the stress response to the structure under different frequency excitation． Ｒegarding the stress response as fatigue loads， the fatigue life of the structure is calculated on the basis of the fatigue characteristics of the material and the Miner linear cumulative fatigue theory． Taking a car exhaust system for the research object， its mechanical fatigue life under engine torque excitation and vibration excitation are analyzed． The simulation results show that the durability of the exhaust system meet the requirements． 

Key words： exhaust systems; dynamic responds; fatigue analysis; vibration durability
