A Theoretical Evaluation of the Backfill Effect in Fracture of Gas Pressurized Pipelines
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1984)The constraining action exerted by the soil surrounding pipelines, when an axial fracture propagates, has been analyzed through a simplified model. In order to avoid large-scale numerical ... -
A Guide for Determining Postweld Heat Treatment Requirements for ASME Code Section VIII Pressure Vessels
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1984)This paper discusses some uncertainties that occasionally arise when considering postweld heat treatment and presents, by the use of decision trees, a quick method for determining whether or not ... -
Dynamic Tests of Cracked Pipe Components
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1984)Dynamic tests were conducted involving notched sections of 4-in. (10-cm) stainless steel and Inconel-600 pipe. The specimen was a four-point bending beam with end masses sized to give an elastic ... -
Study on the Fluidelastic Vibration of Tube Arrays Using Modal Analysis Technique
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1984)This paper presents a method to calculate the critical flow velocity of fluidelastic vibration of tube arrays in heat exchangers. The method is based upon the modal analysis technique, which ... -

Design Guidance for Elastic Followup
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1984)The basic mechanism of elastic followup is discussed in relation to piping design. It is shown how mechanistic insight gained from solutions for a two-bar problem can be used to identify ... -
Stress Analysis of Mitred Bends by Ring Elements
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1984)This paper proposes a ring element for the stress analysis of mitred bends, which is an extension of ring elements for pipe bends proposed by the present authors. Since accurate treatments ... -
Suitability of Synthesized Waveforms for Seismic Qualification of Equipment
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1984)Qualification of nuclear plant equipment and components can be performed by analysis, test, or a combination of both. It is often required to synthesize artificial time histories which represent ... -
Correlation of Support Impact Force and Fretting-Wear for a Heat Exchanger Tube
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1984)Flow-induced tube vibration can cause dynamic interactions between a tube and its supports. Both wear information and results from vibration analyses are needed to achieve a realistic assessment ... -
A Comparative Study of Combination Methods Used in Response Spectrum Analysis of Nuclear Piping Systems
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1984)The different methods of combining responses for individual modes and directions for response spectrum analysis of nuclear piping systems are evaluated. For the purpose of the study, dynamic ... -
Comparison of Different Methods for the Determination of Stress Intensity Factors of Cracks in Pipes With Stress Gradients
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1984)Stress intensity factors for long longitudinal and complete circumferential cracks under stress gradients were calculated using a weight function method. The weight functions were obtained by a ... -
