In this study, numerical simulation is used to analyze the influence of the mechanical properties matching degree of weld, HAZ and base metal on the maximum axial strain of high steel grade pipeline. Based on ASME VIII-2 local strain limit criterion and cumulative damage model, the fracture process of girth weld structure under axial displacement and internal pressure is simulated with XFEM. The material parameters of base metal and weld which are necessary for the simulation calculation are obtained by monotonic tensile test, and the material parameters of HAZ are assumed to be lower than those of the weld and base metal to a certain extent. The results show that for different matching degree combinations, the crack initiation location always appears in the HAZ with the lowest mechanical properties, and the axial strain of the pipeline decreases with the increase of the internal pressure. For the undermatched girth weld, the lower the mechanical properties of the weld is, the smaller the maximum axial strain of the girth weld pipe is. For overmatched girth weld, when the internal pressure is less than 6 MPa, the maximum axial strain of 20% overmatched girth weld pipe is higher than that of 10% overmatched girth weld pipe. However, when the internal pressure is higher than 6 MPa, the maximum axial strain of 20% overmatched girth weld pipe is smaller.

Laminar and quasi-laminar orientations of hydrogen flakes with an inclination up to 16° to the pressure retaining surface were found in pressure vessels of Belgian nuclear power plants. Because of their orientation, these crack tips undergo predominantly mixed-mode loading conditions under internal pressure and the induced stress and strain fields of the single crack tips influence each other. In a former paper, the failure behavior under mixed-mode loading conditions was investigated at RT (Room Temperature) in the upper shelf and in the lower transition region of the steel 22NiMoCr3-7, respectively. In this paper, the failure behavior will be shown for many different levels of material toughness (beginning from upper shelf down to the lower shelf region) on experiments. Additionally numerical simulations are carried out with extended micromechanical based damage mechanics models. For the description of ductile failure mode the Rousselier model is used and the Beremin model to calculate the probability of cleavage fracture. To simulate the sensitivity for low stress triaxiality damage by shear loading, the damage mechanics model was enhanced with a term to account for damage evolution by shear. For numerical simulations in the transition region of brittle-to-ductile failure a coupled damage mechanics model (enhanced Rousselier & Beremin) will be used. In this paper, the current state of the ongoing research project is presented.

Additive manufacturing (AM) has become one of the most revolutionary technologies for the fabrication of metallic parts within the industry; notably, the use of existing metals has significantly eased the adoption of AM in manufacturing. The metal AM method can produce complex parts with effective cost. This process, however, involves rapid heating and solidification, resulting in a high thermal gradient. It causes undesired residual stress and distortion that significantly affects the final product’s integrity. This study investigates the features of a high thermal gradient, structural deformation, and residual stress involved in the powder bed fusion process in virtual environments. Powder bed fusion is an additive manufacturing method that uses a laser or electron beam to melt and fuse the metal material to form a three-dimensional part. A simulation model was developed using layer-to-layer scanning paths based on a 3D geometry in the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. Commercial finite element analysis (FEA) software, Abaqus CAE, is used for the sequentially coupled thermo-mechanical analysis. The temperature history is first calculated in an uncoupled thermal analysis and introduced as a predefined field in the subsequent structural analysis. In the sequentially coupled thermo-mechanical analysis, the thermal evolution of the problem affects the structural response, but the temperature field is not dependent on the stress field. Heat transfer in additive manufacturing is time-dependent, and temperature distribution in an additively manufactured part is non-uniform. Hence a time-dependent heat conduction problem is solved to analyze the process. After the thermal analysis is completed, the quasi-static equilibrium of stress is determined for each time step. An isotropic hardening rule was utilized to consider the evolution of plastic deformation.

This paper describes deterministic benchmark comparisons of 14 probabilistic fracture mechanics (PFM) codes. The benchmark problem focused on determining the leak-before-break behavior of a nickel-based alloy weld in a large-bore piping system of a pressurized-water reactor. The modeled degradation mechanism was primary water stress-corrosion cracking (PWSCC). The benchmark problem was deterministically analyzed with the PFM codes using their models for crack growth rates, stress-intensity factors, crack-opening displacements (CODs), crack transition from inside surface-breaking cracks to through-wall cracks, leak rates, and crack stability. Several output quantities of interest relevant to leak-before-break behavior were then compared. Other outputs as a function of the simulated component operating time were also compared, including the crack lengths and depths, stress-intensity factors, inside and outside surface CODs, and leak rates. An interpretation of these comparisons is provided in relation to the underlying models to better understand the effects of the different modeling approaches. Insights from this study will be used to inform probabilistic comparisons of the PFM codes, which will be presented in a subsequent paper.

AFCEN is the publisher of the French Nuclear code RCC-M® (Design and Construction Rules for Mechanical Components of PWR Nuclear Islands) [1]. It has launched an action for the revision of the Annex Z V and F 7000, respectively concerning the design and the installation of the bolted flange connections. It should be published as probationary phase rules (Section VI of RCC-M®), in the next version of the code, in 2022. The proposed modifications for F 7000 have already been described in [2], and this paper focuses on the proposed modification for the calculation method detailed in the Annex Z V. First, the general philosophy and structure of the Annex, including both Taylor-Forge based (Z V 2000) and NF EN 1591-1 [3] based (Z V 3000) calculation methods, is introduced. Then the major proposed improvements introduced in Z V 2000 (Taylor-Forge based), compared to current edition, are detailed. This includes the management of the metal-to-metal contact (MMC) in the connection (between flanges or between flanges and the gasket limiter ring) that can be required in both assembly and operation. Moreover, the use of specific gasket types involved in these connections (Expanded Graphite Ring or Metal Energized C-Ring...) is covered in this paper. Finally, a focus is also performed on other introductions, like the management of standard connections (including standard flanges, gasket, and bolts), the account for the tightening scatter, the effective gasket width determination in regard with the flange rigidity, and the internal force variation in the connections due to thermal expansion.

ASME PCC-1 (2010) introduced 5 different alternative bolting patterns in contrast to the Legacy Pattern that is commonly known as the “Star Pattern”. For the past 15 years, research has shown that these Alternative Patterns issued by PCC-1 are more efficient than the Star Pattern. However, the research has shown tool movement around the flange to show efficiency, but not actual assembly time and/or assembly time savings from each one of these alternative bolting patterns. While all of these alternative bolting patterns are not appropriate for every gasket type and might not add efficiency for smaller diameter flanges, there are many mid-stream and downstream petrochemical applications that could benefit from further knowledge of these efficiencies. The goal of this paper is to not only determine which one of these alternative patterns is the most efficient but to also compare different types of assembly tools with each pattern. This analysis does not address the accuracy and repeatability of each method and tool type, but its function is to determine the optimum combination of tool and pattern selection to decrease downtime and Lost Profit Opportunity (LPO). This paper will use both bolting patterns and assembly tools on an 18” 600 Class flange, that has (24) 1-1/4” studs to develop a method for determining further testing of bolting pattern and bolting tools.

Thin-walled cylindrical shell structures are widely used in various engineering fields due to their highly efficient load carrying capacity. This kind of structures is prone to buckling failure when subjected to axial compression loads. Machining the shell into corrugated shape is an effective method to prevent buckling. Rational design of corrugated shells can improve the load carrying efficiency of shell structures. However, there are few studies focused on the effects of various parameters on the longitudinal corrugated cylindrical shell buckling. In this paper, numerical studies are performed to analyze the factors affecting the buckling behaviors of thin-walled longitudinal corrugated cylindrical shells under axial compression loads. The cross section of the corrugated shell is obtained by superposing the sine curve on the reference circle. The critical buckling load, buckling mode and imperfection sensitivity of the longitudinal corrugated cylindrical shells are examined and compared with ordinary cylindrical shells. The effects of shell dimensions and material yield strength are taken into account. In addition, the influence of cross section shape parameters on the critical buckling load is considered, including the amplitude A and wave number k. Results show that the axial load carrying capacity of longitudinal corrugated cylindrical shells is better than ordinary cylindrical shells, and rational design of cross section shape can enhance the stability of corrugated shells. This work can provide some reference for relevant experimental studies. Furthermore, it can also give some guides for the application of thin-walled longitudinal corrugated cylindrical shells in actual engineering.

Design of vessels for external pressure currently requires a chart-based solution or analytical approaches which are not necessarily intuitive. In this paper, we propose simple formulas for the external pressure evaluation of pipes and other cylindrical pressure vessels. We present a conceptual comparison between the elastic and elastic-plastic stability of structural columns and that of cylindrical vessels of long, intermediate, and short length. Their common features allow an accurate and straightforward approach for external pressure design. The approach is also extended to spherical caps, conical vessels, and formed heads. We compare the method presented to the current acceptance criteria from various design codes, including the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section VIII, Code Case 2286, and EN 13445-3, as well as codes for steel and aluminum structures. In further discussion, the simplified method is compared against the results of more than 500 experiments on the buckling of cylindrical and spherical vessels published over the past two centuries. This simple but accurate approximation is conceptually intuitive, analytically straightforward, and shows potential utility in pressure vessel design codes, as well as piping design codes such as B31 that currently reference ASME VIII for external pressure design.1

The paper is a continuation of the paper presented in Paris PVP2013-97050 and follow up papers in PVP2014-28948 and in PVP2018-84067. It discusses further laboratory testing and briefly describes two related field service case studies. The paper details tests which include: oxidation testing of graphite, compression and recovery testing, chemical resistance testing of fillers in Sulphuric Acid service. The two related studies are based around the use in a Western Canadian refinery on a hot vapour exchanger and on a Fluidised Catalytic Cracker problematic flange.

In recent years, there have been frequent leakage and explosion accidents caused by the cracking of the circumferential weld of buried pipelines, and soil subsidence is one of the main reasons for the accidents. This paper carries out a numerical simulation analysis based on the soil spring model of the buried pipeline, and studies the mechanical response laws such as axial stress and deformation of buried pipelines under different subsidence ranges. The results show that: With the increases of the subsidence range, the deformation of the pipeline first gradually increases, and then remains unchanged, the axial stress of the pipeline, first increases, then decreases slightly, and finally remains unchanged. With the increase of soil subsidence amount, the dangerous subsidence range of soil increases. When the subsidence amount reaches the yield displacement of the soil, with the increase of subsidence range, the maximum axial stress of the pipeline increases. The results have certain guiding significance for the design and maintenance of buried pipelines.
