Numerical simulation and abrasion life calculation of X-ring for hydraulic actuators of a certain aircraft

In this paper, the X-ring for hydraulic actuators of a certain aircraft was analyzed in order to reinforce the sealing performance of hydraulic actuators, prolong the life of the sealing ring and prolong the service life of the sealing ring. The contact stress and equivalent stress under different compression are simulated by ABAQUS. The location where X-ring is prone to tear failure is found out. According to the contact stress, the wear life...
