Methods And Techniques In Strain And Stress Research

Abstract:

This paper is presenting a lifetime calculation method of welding joint between flange and the cylindrical vessels body, under variable pressure conditions. This method is based on fracture mechanics concept and it is applicable without difficulty, when the strains, the material property and the geometrical elements are known.

Keywords:

lifetime, flanged joints, pressured vessel, tightness, fatigue.
