Effect of postulated crack location on the pressure-temperature limit curve of reactor pressure vessel

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2019
In accordance with ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel (B&PV) Code Sec.XI Appendix. G, a postulated crack is located at the beltline of a reactor pressure vessel because the neutron flux at the beltline is higher than elsewhere.

The Initiation of Environmentally Assisted Cracking in Semi-Elliptical Surface Cracks [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Pressure Vessel Technology, 1998
A Criterion to predict under what conditions EAC would initiate in cracks in a high-sulfur steel in contact with low-oxygen water was recently proposed by Wire and Li (1996). This EAC initiation criterion was developed using transient analyses for the diffusion of sulfides plus experimental test results. The experiments were conducted mainly on compact

An axial crack growth prediction procedure initiated at butt welded joint (Growth prediction for surface crack deeper than semi-circular and that retarded at weld fusion line)

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2018
Structural integrity of cracked pipes is assessed by predicting crack growth. In the fitness-for-service code of the Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers (JSME), the crack growth is predicted using stress intensity factor at the deepest and surface ...

Modelling of the fatigue strength degradation due to a semi-elliptical flaw

open access: yesForces in Mechanics, 2021
Due to the fulfilment of modern operational requirements and time-consuming of complex fatigue responses computation, the surface micro-flaw analysis in large moving systems is still one of the challenging tasks. Thus, the present research work discusses

Finite Element Analysis of Fatigue in Offshore Pipelines with Internal and External Circumferential Cracks

open access: yesApplied Mechanics, 2020
Fatigue lifetime of offshore pipelines with semi-elliptical circumferential surface cracks is often underestimated. An accurate prediction of the pipeline structural integrity is nevertheless important in order to prevent unnecessary and expensive ...

Fitness-for-Service Analysis of the Interplay Between a Quarter-Circle Corner Crack and a Parallel Semi-Elliptical Surface Crack in a Semi-Infinite Solid Subjected to In-Plane Bending: Part I—The Effect on the Quarter-Circle Corner Crack

open access: yesApplied Sciences
For the purpose of Fitness-For-Service analysis, the effect of a semi-elliptical surface crack on a parallel quarter-circle corner crack in a semi-infinite solid subjected to pure bending is studied using 3D finite element analyses.
