A Mechanical Model for Permafrost Thaw Subsidence
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1977)A mechanical model describing permafrost subsidence has been developed and correlated with a full scale field test performed by the Atlantic Richfield Company and Exxon Company, USA at Prudhoe ... -
Minimizing Casing Wear in Dog Legs
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1977)Procedures are presented for estimating the amount of casing wear produced in wells by the rotation of tool joints, drill pipe, and drill pipe protectors against casing. The procedures are ... -
The Mechanical Properties of the Pittsburgh Coal at Elevated Temperatures
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1977)Mechanical properties of coal have been determined in an effort to advance in situ coal gasification technology. Tests and apparatus were developed to evaluate the directional compressive and ... -
Collapse of Worn Casing
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1977)Collapse tests were performed on one-in. dia steel tubes with flats milled on the exterior to simulate worn casing. External pressure and axial load were applied to the tubs having a range ... -
Drag on a Group of Cylinders
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1977)An experimental investigation of the effects of spacing, orientation and Reynolds number on the drag of each cylinder in a group of two and three cylinders was carried out. The drag forces ... -
Arctic Transportation: Operational and Environmental Evaluation of an Air Cushion Vehicle in Northern Alaska
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1977)Traffic tests conducted near Barrow, Alaska with a 7-ton SK-5 Air Cushion Vehicle have shown that these types of vehicles can provide year-round high-speed transport capability over a variety ... -
An Articulated Multiline Production Riser for Deepwater Application
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1977)The need to produce oil and gas in water depths beyond the physical and economical limits of fixed platforms and pipelines has led to the development of a feasible concept for an articulated ... -
Design, Fabrication, and Installation of a Prototype Multiline Marine Production Riser System
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1977)A multiline marine production riser and floating production, storage, and terminal facility may be required for economic development of oil and gas reserves in remote, deep water locations. A ... -
Field Application of Externally Stress-Relieved Drill Collars
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1977)This paper discusses the 1975 field results of the application of external stress relief grooves on drill collars. It contains a formula for the calculation of the groove diameter and makes ... -
A Method for Analysis of a Prototype Articulated Multiline Marine Production Riser System
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1977)This paper describes a newly developed nonlinear computer program that predicts internal reaction forces and motions of a multiline marine production riser exposed to wave and current forces. ... -
Fracture in Straight Pipes Under Large Deflection Conditions—Part II: Pipe Pressures
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1977)A finite difference hydrodynamic code was developed to determine the pressures in a dumbbell pipe configuration when a through crack in the pipe wall was permitted to run along the length. ... -
Characterization of Fracture in Vessels and Piping
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1977)A two-parameter fracture criterion previously applied to flat plates has been extended to cylindrical and spherical shells. It is applicable to all modes of fracture including net section stress ... -
The Effect of Stress Ratio on Fatigue Crack Growth in a Biaxial Stress Field
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1977)The effect of stress ratio (mean stress) on fatigue crack growth in a biaxial stress field was investigated. The biaxiality was introduced by means of anticlastic bending of rhombic plates. A ... -
Stress and Buckling of Internally Pressurized, Elastic-Plastic Torispherical Vessel Heads—Comparisons of Test and Theory
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1977)Several aluminum and mild steel torispherical heads were tested by Galletly and by Kirk and Gill and subsequently analyzed by Bushnell with use of the BOSOR5 computer program. The thinnest ... -
On Through Cracks at Interference Fit Fasteners
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1977)Approximate stress intensity factors (SIF’s) are derived for through-the-thickness cracks originating at an interference fit fastener- (IFF-) filled hole in a uniaxially loaded plate. SIF’s are ... -
Stress Intensity Factors in Edge-Cracked Plates Subjected to Transient Thermal Singularities
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1977) -
Inner and Outer Cracks in Internally Pressurized Cylinders
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1977)Stress intensity factors of pressurized surface cracks at the internal surface and un-pressurized surface cracks at the external surface of an internally pressurized cylinder are estimated from ... -
Inelastic Behavior of Finite Circular Cylindrical Shells
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1977)In the design of elevated temperature components such as those encountered in Liquid Metal Fast Breeder Reactor (LMFBR) service, the designer/analyst is often faced with the task of having to ...
