Engineering Critical Assessment for Offshore Pipeline with Semi Elliptical Surface Cracks in Girth Weld – Comparison of FEM and BS7910 Guideline
Economical design with sufficient fracture resistance is of high importance in any offshore pipeline projects. Using an Engineering Critical Assessment (ECA), alternate acceptance criteria for pipeline girth weld inspection can significantly reduce the cost of constructing of offshore oil and gas pipeline by minimizing unnecessary repairs. Offshore pipelines consist of short pipeline segments c...
متن کاملAnalytical Solution for Embedded Elliptical Cracks, and Finite Element Alternating Method for Elliptical Surface Cracks, Subjected to Arbitrary Loadings
Abstract-The complete solution for an embedded elliptical crack in an infinite solid and subjected to arbitrary tractions on the crack surface is rederived from Vijayakumar and Atluri’s general solution procedure. The general procedure for evaluating the necessary elliptic integrals in the generalized solution for elliptical crack is also derived in this paper. The generalized solution is emplo...
متن کاملImproved Formula for the Stress Intensity Factor of Semi-Elliptical Surface Cracks in Welded Joints under Bending Stress
Welded joints are prone to fatigue cracking with the existence of welding defects and bending stress. Fracture mechanics is a useful approach in which the fatigue life of the welded joint can be predicted. The key challenge of such predictions using fracture mechanics is how to accurately calculate the stress intensity factor (SIF). An empirical formula for calculating the SIF of welded joints ...
متن کاملAn Inversion Procedure for Sizing Surface Cracks in Metals, Using an Open-ended Waveguide Probe
Fatigue and stress crack detection in metallic structures is of utmost importance to the in-service inspections of metallic components. Beside the crack detection, the prediction of the crack size leads to a better estimation of the useful life of the metal in service. Currently, there are several prominent nondestructive testing (NDT) techniques for detecting and sizing surface cracks in metal...
متن کاملFurther studies into interacting 3D cracks
The phenomenon of ageing structures has focused attention on the problem of multiple-site damage (MSD) and wide spread fatigue damage (WFD). In isolation each ̄aw or crack may be safe. However, the cumulative eect of multiple, interacting cracks may signi®cantly degrade the damage tolerance of the structure. This paper presents an overview of a new ®nite element alternating technique algorithm...
