... appliance in structures can enhance the stability of the structure by adequately choosing the material constituents and arranging constituents' distribution. The governing equation of the pipe system is derived based on the Euler–Bernoulli beam theory and numerically solved by the differential quadrature...

... of part-through wall flaws for thin-walled pipes. The final allowable angles are currently applied to pipes in order to maintain structural tolerance if the part-through flaws become through-wall flaws. To ensure that this stability is not compromised, plastic collapse stresses for through-wall flaws...

... bifurcation analysis and a post-buckling analysis were then conducted to verify the tank's stability when subjected to wind loading in accordance with the wind profiles specified in the selected design documents. To ensure the quality of the analyses, a study on mesh convergence and the load increment of Riks...

A specific nonuniform loading case with n  = 2 was considered by Anderson and Boresi [ 35 ] for thick circular...

... of the sensing device are described in detail. Then, experiments are carried out to prove the accuracy and the long-term stability of the sensing device. To verify the accuracy of the device, numerical simulation of the deformation of a pipe model is carried out using finite element method. Results from...

...Poh-Sang Lam; Robert L. Sindelar The J -integral fracture methodology was applied to evaluate the stability of postulated flaws in mild steel storage tanks. The material properties and the J -resistance J R curve were obtained from the archival A285 Grade B carbon steel test data. The J -integral...
