Fatigue-Crack Growth in an X-65 Line-Pipe Steel at Low Cyclic Frequencies in Aqueous Environments
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The effects of salt and distilled water environments on fatigue-crack growth rates have been evaluated for an X-65 line-pipe steel. Tests were conducted over a frequency range between 10 and ...
Fatigue Life Prediction of Welded Joints for Offshore Structures Under Variable Amplitude Loading
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper describes the development of a fracture mechanics model for the prediction of fatigue life of welded joints subjected to variable amplitude loading. The prediction program is based ...
Brittle Fracture in Heavy Section Welded T-Joints: Correlation Between Stress Intensity at Fracture and Small-Specimen Toughness Tests
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A fracture mechanics analysis has been made of brittle fractures encountered during a program of fatigue tests of welded plate T-joints. Fracture toughnesses are in reasonable agreement with ...
Thickness Effect and Fatigue Crack Development in Welded T-Joints
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The effect of section thickness on the fatigue life of welded plate-to-plate T-joints was studied experimentally and theoretically using various linear elastic fracture mechanics models. Fatigue ...
