Abstract: Shakedown and ratcheting behaviors of thick-walled cylindrical vessels with radial openings subjected to cyclic thermomechanical loadings are investigated by the inelastic finite element analysis. ...

Abstract: Based on detailed three-dimensional finite element analyses, accurate, option 3, failure assessment curves (FACs) based on the R6 are constructed for a dissimilar metal weld joint (DMWJ) connecting ...

Abstract: In this paper, a sensing device specifically for measuring deformations of high temperature pipes is designed, and its applicability is verified both experimentally and theoretically. First, the ...
