Applications of Energy Release Rate Techniques to Part-Through Cracks in Experimental Pressure Vessels
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In nonlinear applications of computational fracture mechanics, energy release rate techniques are used increasingly for computing stress intensity parameters of crack configurations. Recently, deLorenzi ...
Test of Thick Vessel with a Flaw in Residual Stress Field
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A 152-mm-thick cylindrical test vessel fabricated of A533, grade B, class 1 steel, was pressurized to failure at −23°C. The vessel contained a fatigue-sharpened notch adjacent to a half-bead ...
