Prediction of Creep Deformation and Failure for 1/2 Cr-1/2 Mo-1/4 V and 2-1/4 Cr-1 Mo Steels
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1985)This paper reviews the development of an equation for the prediction of long-term creep strain and creep life. Originally, this relationship was successfully applied to 1/2 Cr-1/2 Mo-1/4 V ... -
Studies of the Line-Spring Model for Nonlinear Crack Problems
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1985)This paper presents an investigation of the line-spring model (LSM) of Rice and Levy as applied to nonlinear crack problems. A J 2 deformation theory of plasticity formulation of a LSM for ... -
Damping in LMFBR Pipe Systems
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1985)Liquid Metal Fast Breeder Reactor pipe systems typically utilize a thicker insulation package than that used on water plant pipe systems. They are supported with special insulated pipe clamps. ... -
Stress Corrosion Cracking Susceptibility of Low Alloy Steels Used for Reactor Pressure Vessel in High Temperature Oxygenated Water
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1985)Studies have been done on stress corrosion cracking (SCC) susceptibility of low alloy steels in water containing dissolved oxygen. The fundamental factors which affect the SCC susceptibility were ... -
Design for Buckle-Free Shapes in Pressure Vessels
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1985)There are many applications of thin-walled axisymmetric structures as pressure vessels in which buckle-free in-service behavior can only be guaranteed by reinforcements, such as stringers and ... -
Analysis of Elastic Surface Cracks in Cylinders Using the Line-Spring Model and Shell Finite Element Method
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1985)This paper presents elastic analysis of axial and circumferential semielliptical surface flaws in cylinders using the line-spring model of Rice and Levy [1-3] and a shell finite element method. ... -
Time Interval Damage Potential of Seismic Testing Waveforms
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1985)The concept of time interval response spectrum is introduced for characterizing the damage potential or the likelihood of a waveform to cause multiple mode response. By modifying slightly a ... -
An Improved Multiaxial Creep-Rupture Strength Criterion
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1985)An improved strength model is developed for predicting creep rupture under multiaxial stress states. The new model incorporates three independent stress parameters and distinguishes between life ... -
