The Impact

In this study, the fatigue behavior of 0.25 wt.% graphene nanoplatelets (GnPs) reinforced and unreinforced impact damaged basalt/epoxy composite pressure vessels (CPVs) was investigated. The CPVs were subjected to low-velocity impact (LVI) of 2.5 J, 5 J, 7.5 J, 10 J, 15 J, 20 J, and 25 J under internal pressure of 50 bar (hoop/axial prestresses: 98/49 MPa). Then, to detect fatigue life changes, fatigue tests were performed at load rates of 30% of ultimate hoop stress (σHS), where sweat damage occurred in the basalt/epoxy CPVs under alternating internal pressure. Considering the remaining fatigue life and formation of the damages in the CPVs for all impact energies, to investigate the fatigue behavior and GnPs effects of CPVs subjected to low-velocity impact, an impact value of 5 J was preferred. The 5 J impact damaged CPVs were subjected to fatigue cyclic following ASTM D 2992 at load rates of 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, and 40% of the σHS. The fatigue life of damaged CPVs was compared by that of undamaged over S-N curves. As the impact energy increased, the impact damage area increased. The increased size of damage reduced the fatigue life of basalt/epoxy CPVs. At the fatigue load rates mentioned above, the GnPs improved the fatigue life of damaged basalt/epoxy CPVs by about 3.5, 3.2, 11.3, 2.4, and 5 times, respectively.

This article presents some experimental data recorded from 54 impact tests on pressurized mild steel pipes. The pipes were fully clamped across a span which was ten times the outside pipe diameter of 60 mm. The pipes had a wall thickness of 1.70 mm and were impacted laterally by a rigid wedge indenter at the mid-span and one-quarter-span positions. The impact velocities ranged up to 13.6 m/s and caused large inelastic indentations for the lower values and at higher values a loss of integrity which could occur underneath the indenter and/or at an end support. The critical values for the two failure energies were obtained for a range of internal gas pressures.

The Impact

This paper provides a combined computational and analytical study to investigate the lateral impact behavior of pressurized pipelines and inspect all the parameters such as the outside diameter and internal pressure affects such behavior. In this study, quartic polynomial functions are applied to formulate the maximum crushing force (F), maximum permanent displacement (W), and absorbed energy (E) of the pressurized pipelines during the impact problem. The effects of the diameter and pressure on F, W, and E are therefore illustrated through analyzing those functions. Response surfaces are also plotted based on the generated quartic polynomial functions and the quality (accuracy) of those functions are verified through several techniques.

The Impact

The effect of extreme cold temperatures on the quasi-static indentation and the low velocity impact behavior of woven carbon/epoxy composite sandwich panels with Nomex honeycomb core was investigated. Impact tests were performed at room temperature, –70°C, and –150°C. Two sizes of hemispherical impactor were used combined to three different impactor masses. All the impact tests were performed at the same initial impact velocity. The effect of temperature on the impact behavior is investigated by studying the load history, load-displacement curves and transmitted energy as a function of time curves. Impact damage induced at various temperatures was studied using different non-destructive and destructive techniques. Globally, more damages are induced with impact temperature decreasing. The results also show that the effect of temperature on the impact behavior is function of the impactor size.

Strain Data

Very thin cylindrical pressure vessels with torispherical end-closures have been tested under internal pressure until buckles developed in the knuckles of the ends. These were prototype vessels in an austenitic stainless steel. The preparation of the ends and the closed test vessels is outlined, and the instrumentation, test installation, and test procedure are described. Results are given and discussed for three typical ends (diameters 54, 81, and 108in.; thickness to diameter ratios 0.00237, 0.00158, and 0.00119). These include measured thickness and curvature distributions, strain data and the derived elastic stress indices, and pole deflection measurements. Some details of the observed time-dependent plasticity (or ‘cold creep’) are given. Details of two types of buckle that developed eventually in the vessel ends are also reported.

The main purpose of this work is to study how the morphology of nanofillers and dispersion and distribution level of inorganic nanofiller influence the impact behavior and fracture probability of inorganic filler filled industrial high-density polyethylene nanocomposites. For this study, nanoclay and nano-CaCO3 fillers–high-density polyethylene mixings (0, 1, 3, 5 wt.% high-density polyethylene) was prepared by melt-mixing method using a compounder system. The impact behavior was examined by charpy impact test, scanning electron microscopy, and probability theory and statistics. The level of the dispersion was characterized with scanning electron microscopy energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analysis. The results showed rather good dispersion of both of inorganic nanofiller, with a mixture of exfoliated and confined morphology. The results indicated that the impact strength of the industrial nanocomposite decreased with the increase of inorganic particulate content. The impact reliability of the industrial nanocomposites depends on the type of nanofillers and their dispersion and distribution in the matrix.

Cyclic Bending Moment

The present study aimed to study ratcheting strains of corroded stainless steel 304LN elbow pipes subjected to internal pressure and cyclic bending moment. To this aim, spherical and cubical shapes corrosion are applied at two depths of 1 mm and 2 mm in the critical points of elbow pipe such as symmetry sites at intrados, extrados, and crown positions. Then, a Duplex 2205 stainless steel elbow pipe is considered as an alternative to studying the impact of the pipe materials, due to its high corrosion resistance and strength, toughness, and most importantly, the high fatigue strength and other mechanical properties than stainless steel 304LN. In order to perform numerical analyzes, the hardening coefficients of the materials were calculated. The results highlight a significant relationship between the destructive effects of corrosion and the depth and shape of corrosion, so that as corrosion increases, the resulting destructive effects increases as well, also, the ratcheting strains in cubic corrosions have a higher growth rate than spherical corrosions. In addition, the growth rate of the ratcheting strains in the hoop direction is much higher across the studied sample than the axial direction. The highest growth rate of hoop strain was observed at crown and the highest growth rate of axial strains occurred at intrados position. Altogether, Duplex 2205 material has a better performance than SS 304LN.

Accumulated Strain

Experimental results of uniaxial ratcheting tests for stainless steel 304 (SS304) under stress-controlled condition at room temperature showed that the elastic domain defined in this paper expands with accumulation of plastic strain. Both ratcheting strain and viscoplastic strain rates reduce with the increase of elastic domain, and the total strain will be saturated finally. If the saturated strain and corresponded peak stress of different experimental results under the stress ratio R ≥ 0 are plotted, a curve demonstrating the material shakedown states of SS304 can be constituted. Using this curve, the accumulated strain in a pressure vessel subjected to cyclic internal pressure can be determined by only an elastic-plastic analysis, and without the cycle-by-cycle analysis. Meanwhile, a physical experiment of a thin-walled pressure vessel subjected to cyclic internal pressure has been carried out to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of this noncyclic method. By comparison, the accumulated strains evaluated by the noncyclic method agreed well with those obtained from the experiments. The noncyclic method is simpler and more practical than the cycle-by-cycle method for engineering design.
