Limit load solutions for thin-walled cylinders with circumferential cracks under combined axial tension, bending and pressure are developed, considering the effect of pressure-induced hoop stress via Mises yield criterion. The new cover constant-depth or semi-elliptical surface through-wall cracks. predictions Mises-based limit equation agree very well elastic-perfectly plastic finite element results. However, net-section collapse equations, which ignore in cylinder, tend to over-estimate...
Theoretical and numerical validations are performed for the ABAQUS contour integral J C(t) functions in its versions v6.11-14 cases with residual stresses. Test specially designed to introduce various stress types followed by cracked-body fracture/creep analyses. Crack driving force parameters evaluated using both inbuilt v6.14 self-developed software. Based on results, guidance is developed users obtain correct values v6.11-14.
A local limit load model is developed for shell/plate type components with surface cracks determining the or reference stress used in J prediction via scheme defective components. The a plate which contains rectangular crack circumscribing real defect and has same thickness as component at location. remotely loaded by primary stresses of location obtained from elastic uncracked-body analysis. global this component. validated using 273 cases 3-D finite element (FE) results semi-elliptical...
