The purpose of this paper is to provide research results for a cylindrical vessel—30 deg lateral intersection with diameter ratio d/D⩾0.5 under increasing internal pressure loading. The results include those from tests as well as from an inelastic stress analysis. The experimentally determined limit load is compared with that from the finite element analysis. The stress concentration factor, the spread of the plastic area, and the behavior of the deformation are provided. Also, a burst test of the model vessel is carried out to provide some data to justify the existing design method and forms a basis for developing an advanced design guideline for cylindrical vessel—lateral intersection under internal pressure loading.

This paper discusses the behaviour of hollow tubes with axisymmetric internal projections subjected to combined axial and internal pressure loading. Predictions from an extensive elastic and elastic-plastic finite element analysis are presented for a typical geometry and a range of loading combinations, using a simplified bilinear elastic-perfectly plastic material model. The axial loading case, previously analysed, is extended to cover the additional effect of internal pressure. All the predicted stress and strain data are found to depend on the applied loading conditions. The results are normalized with respect to material properties and can therefore be applied to geometrically similar components made from other materials, which can be represented by the same material models.

Abstract The present paper makes an attempt to depict the effect of ovality in the inlet pigtail pipe bend of a reformer under combined internal pressure and in-plane bending. Finite element analysis (FEA) and experiments have been used. An incoloy Ni-Fe-Cr B407 alloy material was considered for study and assumed to be elastic-perfectly plastic in behavior. The design of pipe bend is based on ASME B31.3 standard and during manufacturing process, it is challenging to avoid thickening on the inner radius and thinning on the outer radius of pipe bend. This geometrical shape imperfection is known as ovality and its effect needs investigation which is considered for the study. The finite element analysis (ANSYS-workbench) results showed that ovality affects the load carrying capacity of the pipe bend and it was varying with bend factor (h). By data fitting of finite element results, an empirical formula for the limit load of inlet pigtail pipe bend with ovality has been proposed, which is validated by experiments.

This paper presents the analysis methods for design of automotive bumper covers. The bumper covers are plastic structures attached to the front and rear ends of an automobile and are expected to absorb energy in a minor collision. One requirement in design of the bumper covers is to minimize the bumper deflection within a limited range under specific loadings at specific locations based on the design guideline. To investigate the stiffness performance under various loading conditions, a numerical model based on the explicit dynamic finite element analysis (FEA) using the commercial FEA solver, LS-DYNA, is developed to analyze the design. The experimental tests are also carried out to verify the numerical model. The thickness of the bumper cover is a design variable which usually varies from 3 to 4 mm depending on locations. To improve the stiffness of the bumper, an optimal design for the bumper under a pre-defined loading condition is identified by using the topology optimization approach, which is an optimal design method to obtain the optimal layout of an initial design domain under specific boundary conditions. The outcome of this study provides an efficient and cost-effective method to predict and improve the design of automotive bumper covers.

Corrosion Defects

The failure assessment for corroded pipeline has been considered with the burst test and the finite element analysis. The burst tests were conducted on 762mm diameter, 17.5mm wall thickness and API 5L X65 pipe that contained specially manufactured rectangular corrosion defect. The failure pressures for corroded pipeline have been measured by burst testing and classified with respect to corrosion sizes and corroded regions — the body, the girth weld and the seam weld of pipe. Finite element analysis was carried out to derive failure criteria of corrosion defect within the body, the girth weld and the seam weld of the pipe. A series of finite element analyses were performed to obtain a limit load solution for corrosion defects on the basis of burst test. As a result, the criteria for failure assessment of corrosion defect within the body, the girth weld and the seam weld of API 5L X65 gas pipeline were proposed.

This paper introduces a optimize design method of ship unloader. The traditional structure design method is totally by experience and manual calculation, while this method is using the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) method to optimize the structure of ship unloader. Therefore this method may keep the stress and deformation of the structure under permission with less use of materials. First we use the FEA analysis software ANSYS to analyze the static strength and stiffness of grab ship unloader, and get its stress and deformation under different work conditions. Then we evaluate the results and modify the structures to improve the performances of the structure under the complex working conditions. Case study shows this method is effective and efficient in practical use.

Abstract This paper will clarify the point of transition where the behavior of the dish of a torispherical head goes from thin wall theory (collapse failure and membrane) to thick wall (burst failure) as the head dish radius to thickness ratios (L/t) gets smaller. There are several stated ratio limits for this transition. Three separate Welding Research Bulletins WRC 364 New Design Curves for Torispherical Heads[1], WRC 444 Buckling Criteria for Torispherical Heads Under Internal Pressure [3] and, WRC 501 Design of Torispherical and Ellipsoidal Heads Subjected to Internal Pressure[4] each provide a different definition of the transition point, that being 16.67, 15 and 20 respectively. This paper will review the actual test performed for L/t ratios from 20 down to 15 (which is the lowest ratio test run) and provide the results of a numerical desktop study in lieu of actual testing. Linear elastic, elastic perfectly plastic limit load and elastic plastic limit load finite element analysis will be parametrically run across many L/t ratios and the knuckle radius will be varied across the runs. The results will be reviewed to check through wall behavior to find the transition point of thin to thick wall behavior. These will also be compared against the existing ASME BVP Section VIII Division 2 [5] formulas.

Systematic detailed non-linear finite element (FE) analysis are described for limit load interaction of piping branch junctions subjected to internal pressure and bending. The results show that for the tees with a small diameter ratio, the limit load interaction closes to the linear expression; as diameter ratio d/D increasing, the interaction relationship tends to parabolic equation; for the piping branch junction with diameter ratio equaling to unit, the limit load combinations is approximately quadratic. Compared to the individual limit bending value, internal pressure slightly increases the bending capability as it is in the range of 0.2£P/PL£0.4, especially for the cases of the main pipe with thinner wall. A closed limit load solution is obtained from the FE results through accommodating the geometrical parameter influence, and validated by using experimental results.

Plastic Limit Pressure

Cylinder-nozzle intersections are widely used in pressure vessel and piping industries. In order to get better mixing and energy exchange of the reactants, pipe-nozzle intersection with hillside nozzle is applied more and more widely. The purpose of this work is to investigate the plastic limit load of cylinders with hillside nozzle subjected to internal pressure. Three full-scale test models with different angles of the hillside nozzle were designed and fabricated specially for the test using strain gagues. 3-D finite element numerical simulations on the experimental models were performed. Based on both results, a group of basic data on plastic limit pressure defined by double elastic-slope method for cylinders with hillside nozzle is approximately obtained according to load-strain responses, and the plastic limit pressures determined by test and finite element analysis are in good agreement. The results indicate that the limit pressure increases with the increment of the angle of the hillside nozzle, and compared with radial nozzles in cylinders, the hillside nozzles have higher limit pressure, which can be served as the basis for developing a design guideline for pressurized cylinders with various angles of hillside nozzle.
