Abstract: The shakedown behavior of a thin cylinder subject to constant pressure and cyclic thermal loading is described by the well known Bree diagram. In this paper, the shakedown and ratchetting ...

Abstract: In ASME Design by Analysis, the plastic load of pressure vessels is established using the twice elastic slope criterion of plastic collapse. This is based on a characteristic load-deformation ...

Abstract: An investigation of the cyclic elastic-plastic response of an Olefin plant heat exchanger subject to cyclic thermal and pressure loading is presented. Design by analysis procedures for assessment ...
