Effect of cyclic loading on elastic–plastic fracture resistance of PHT system piping material of PHWR
The objective of the paper is to study the effect of cyclic loading on the fracture resistance of the SA 333 Gr.6 carbon steel material of the primary heat transport (PHT) system piping of Indian pressurized heavy water reactors (PHWR). Tests have been carried out on compact tension specimens machined from the pipe used in the PHT system. The effect of load ratio, incremental plastic displaceme...
متن کاملProgress in Three-dimensional Elastic-plastic Stress Analysis for Fracture Mechanics *
This paper summarizes progress in the development of finite element methods for three-dimensional elastic-plastic stress analysis in fracture mechanics. The work is directed toward the study of stress states near flaws such as a part-through crack in a pressure vessel wall, and emphasis is placed on the large scale plastic yielding range The development of a computer program with large computin...
متن کاملThe Elastic-plastic Mechanics of Crack Extension
This paper briefly reviews progres~ in the elastic plastic analysis of crack extension. Analytical results for plane strain and plane stress deformation fields are noted, and elastic-plastic fracture instability as well as transitional behavior and combined rate and thermal effects are discussed.
متن کاملDamage Assessment using an Inverse Fracture Mechanics approach
This paper studies the application of an inverse methodology for problem solving in fracture mechanics using the finite element analysis. The method was applied to both detection of subsurface cracks and the study of propagating cracks. The procedure for detection of subsurface cracks uses a first order optimization analysis coupled with a penalty function to solve for the unknown geometric par...
متن کاملNanomechanical Quantification of Elastic, Plastic, and Fracture Properties of LiCoO2
LiCoO 2 is an important lithium storage compound that adopts a distorted rock-salt structure of the α -NaFeO 2 type. After the discovery of reversible lithium (de)intercalation in this layered host compound by Mizushima et al., [ 1 ] this material became central to the introduction and subsequent development of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) of high energy and power density. The advantages of LiC...
