Abstract: The conventional way to define the weldment creep strength reduction factor is usually based on uniaxial creep data of weld metals and parent metals. In order to take the multiaxial effect ...

Abstract: This paper used finite element method (FEM) to predict the residual stresses in repair weld of a stainless steel clad plate. The effects of clad metal thickness and base metal thickness on ...

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: Residual stresses and deformation in the butt welding of an ultrathick tube-sheet in a large scale reactor are predicted by finite element method. The effect of applied load on residual stress ...

Abstract: This paper presented a finite element analysis of the effect of brazed residual stress on creep for stainless steel plate-fin structure using finite element code ABAQUS . The as-brazed residual ...

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 ...

Abstract: In this paper, an extensometer was specifically designed for online deformation monitoring of high temperature pipes and its applicability was verified experimentally. The design procedure and the ...
