Evaluation of Stress Intensity Factor for Cracks in Surface of Tubes with Internal Pressure

摘要

In this report the authors have examined the different methods for calculation of the stress intensity factor in tubes subject at internal pressure with surface cracks. The analysis includes cracks in 2-D axialsymmetric and 3-D. Moreover the authors have clarified the difference between the ASME Sec.11 and the procedure more rigorous. (Atomindex citation 11:504789)
