Abstract: In nuclear power plants, vibration stress of piping is frequently measured to prevent the occurrence of fatigue failure. A simpler and more efficient measurement method is desired for rapid integrity evaluation of piping. ...

Abstract: In nuclear power plants, vibration stress of piping is frequently evaluated to prevent fatigue failure. A simple and fast measurement method is attractive to evaluate many piping systems efficiently. In this study, a method ...

Abstract: The vibration-induced fatigue failure of small-bore piping is one of the common causes of failure trouble at nuclear power plants (NPPs). Therefore, the purpose of this study is to develop the measurement methods of ...

Abstract: To improve design and troubleshooting techniques of piping systems for operating power plants, it is necessary to investigate, by experiment and simulation, the behavior of fluid inside the piping system in detail. This ...
