Abstract This study evaluates creep-fatigue damage in the modified Grade 91 thick-cylinder tested by Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA), to understand the failure mechanism of critical components of Fast Reactor nuclear plants. As modified Grade 91 demonstrated creep-fatigue interaction induced failure mechanisms, finite element analysis of high-temperature components will require a unified constitutive model (UCM) that can simulate various creep-fatigue responses with reasonable accuracy. Hence, a UCM coupled with various advanced modeling features including the continuum damage modeling features is investigated to demonstrate their predictability of the fatigue, creep and creep-fatigue responses of the modified Grade 91 steel. The modified UCM is implemented into ABAQUS for analysis of creep deformation in the thick cylinder benchmark problem. Finite element analysis results are presented to demonstrate how the thermal cycling influences the creep-deformation of this high-temperature component. It is also demonstrated how thermal cycling’s influence on fatigue life can be determined based on the damage variable incorporated in the UCM.

Root Region

As lined, higher transmission ratio drives system will have uneven stresses in the root region of the pinion and wheel. To enrich this agility of uneven stresses in normal-contact ratio (NCR) gearing system, an enhanced system is desirable to be industrialized. To attain this objective, it is proposed to put on the idea of modifying the correction factor in such a manner that the bending strength of the gearing system is improved. In this work, the correction factor is modified in such a way that the stress in the root region is equalized between the pinion and wheel. This equalization of stresses is carried out by providing a correction factor in three circumstances: in pinion; wheel and both the pinion and the wheel. Henceforth performances of this S+, S0 and S- drives are evaluated in finite element analysis (FEA) and compared for balanced root stresses in parallel shaft spur gearing systems. It is seen that the outcomes gained from the modified drive have enhanced performance than the standard drive.
