The present work presents plastic limit load solutions for piping branch junctions with local wall-thinning, based on detailed three-dimensional (3-D) and small strain FE limit analyses using elastic-perfectly plastic materials. Three types of loading are considered; internal pressure, in-plane bending on the branch pipe and in-plane bending on the run pipe. The wall-tinning located on variable area of the piping branch junction is considered. A wide range of piping branch junction and wall-thinning geometries are considered. Comparison of the proposed solutions with FE results shows good agreement

This study was carried out an experimental and finite element analysis on the fracture behavior of straight pipes with local wall thinning under internal pressure. Local wall thinning was machined on the pipes in order to simulate erosion/corrosion metal loss. The configurations of the eroded area has an eroded ratio of d/t=0.80~0.92 and an eroded length of l=25, 50 and 102 mm. Three-dimensional elastic-plastic analyses were also carried out using the finite element method, which is able to accurately simulate failure behaviors. In regards to the relation ship between pressure and eroded ratio, the criterion that can be used safely under operating pressure and design pressure were obtained from this calculation. The results of this calculation were in relatively good agreement with that of the experiment.

Recently, the J/T analysis based on elastic-plastic finite element analysis is popularly used in the nuclear industry to assess the integrity of a cracked pipe. The objective of this paper is to evaluate the effect of stress-strain curve for weld metal, variation of crack incremental length(${\delta}a$), and crack face pressure on the J/T analysis result. For this purpose, a parametric analysis was performed and the results calculated from finite element analysis were compared with those from the piping experimental data(stainless steel weldment pipe with circumferential through-wall crack). The numerical result using base metal material property is in agreement with the experimental one and the maximum load is decreased as the ${\delta}a$ for J/T analysis is increased.

This paper presents plastic limit loads of piping branch junctions with local wall thinning under combined pressure and in-plane bending, based on systematic three-dimensional finite element limit analyses using elastic-perfectly plastic materials. An ideal branch junction without weld or reinforcement around the intersection is considered with two locations of wall thinning; one in the run pipe, and the other in the branch pipe. Based on FE results, effects of thinning geometries on plastic limit moments are quantified and simple approximations of plastic limit loads are proposed.

본 논문에서는 굽힘과 내압이 가해질 때 미터밴드의 한계하중을 3차원 유한요소해석을 이용하여 연구하였다. 재료는 탄성-완전 소성재료로 가정하였고, 기하학적 선형과 비선형 효과를 고려하여 소성 한계하중을 결정하였다. 본 연구를 위한 해석에서는 다양한 범위의 형상 변수가 고려되었다. 유한요소해석 결과를 바탕으로 굽힘에 관한 보간식을 제시하였다.

Elastic-plastic behavior of nuclear power plant elbow piping under seismic loads has been conducted in this study. Finite element analyses are performed using classical Bilinear kinematic hardening model (BKIN) and Multilinear kinematic hardening model (MKIN) as well as a nonlinear kinematic hardening model (Chaboche model). The influence of internal pressure and seismic loading on ratcheting strain of elbow pipe is studied by means of the three models. The results found that the predicted results of Chaboche model is maximum, closely followed by the predicted results of MKIN model, and the minimum is the predicted results of BKIN model. Moreover, comparisons of analysis results for each plasticity model against predicted results for a equivalent cyclic loading elbow component and for a simplified piping system seismic test are presented in the paper.

Fiber Glass Tube(FGT) 또는 steel pipe를 이용한 터널막장의 수평보강공법 그리고 강관다단공법 등은 터널 굴착시 터널막장의 안정성이 확보되지 못할 경우에 흔히 사용된다. 그러나 이러한 공법이 사용된 터널의 역학적 거동은 아직 충분히 알려진 바가 없으며, 따라서 설계와 전산해석 과정에서 경험에 의존하는 경우가 많고 공법의 합리적인 적용이 어려운 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 복합체 역학을 이용한 보강공법의 전산해석 단순화 방법의 적용성을 검증하였고, 강화지반의 등가탄성계수는 평균장 이론과 변형률 에너지 이론을 사용하여 도출하였다. 다양한 보강패턴에 따른 터널막장의 거동에 관한 매개변수 연구를 수행하였다.

Dynamic response of buried pipelines both in the axial and the transverse directions on concrete pipe and steel pipe, FRP pipe were investigated through a free vibration analysis. End boundary conditions considered herein consist of free ends, fixed ends, and fixed-free ends in the axial and the transverse direction. Guided ends, simply supported ends, and supported-guided ends were added to the transverse direction. The buried pipeline was regarded as a beam on an elastic foundation and the ground displacement of sinusoidal wave was applied to it. Natural frequencies and mode shapes were determined according to end boundary conditions. In addition, the effects of parameters on the natural frequency were evaluated. The natural frequency is affected most significantly by the soil stiffness and the length of the buried pipelines. The natural frequency increases as the soil stiffness increases while it decreases as the length of the buried pipeline increases. Such behavior appears to be dominant in the axial direction rather than in the transverse direction of the buried pipelines.

This paper investigates the reliability of district heating pipes at thermo-elastic fatigue loading. District heating pipes, subjected to $120^{\circ}C$ and $16kg_f/cm^2$ due to water distributing service through inside the pipes, should endure long term cyclic thermal-mechanical loadings. The heating pipes are the co-centric tubes of steel pipe, poly urethane(PUR) insulator, and high density poly ethylene(HDPE) case. On installation, foam pad is externally wrapped for accommodating stress reduction near the bend sections of pipes. However, there have been frequent reports on the failures of bend sections in the middle of long term service. This study scrutinizes the observed failures near the bend sections through applying the finite element methods. Specially in this study, heating pipes are studied on the influence of foam padding on failures and proposed new designs for reinforced bend without foam pad.

This study investigated the structural behavior and field applicability of sandwich type GFRP arches with polymer mortar in core. As a result, in case of crack loading and failure loading, total strains at crown were the highest; the fracture strain at crown was 0.01690, which is 4.2 times greater than the fracture strain (0.004) of cement concrete. The 3 % deflection load was 17.42 kN, the flexural strength was $163.98{\times}10^{-3}GPa$, and the flexural elastic modulus was 11.884 GPa. From load-deflection relationship up to 3.5 % deflection, 3D analysis results and experimental values were observed to be almost identical. It was considered reasonable to set a deflection rate limit to be 3 % for structural safety purpose. The standard external flexural strength of semicircular arch used in this study was approximately 2.64 times higher than that of hume pipe (2 type standard) and tripled composite pipe. The external pressure strength at fracture was approximately 1.57 times higher than that of hume pipe. It was confirmed that the implementing semicircular arch had mechanically more advantage than the circular pipe. Optimum member thickness was 8~53 mm according to arch radius of 450~1,800 mm and cover depth of 2~10 m. It was found that the larger strength could be obtained even if the thickness of member was smaller than that of concrete structure. In field application study, figures and equations were derived for obtaining applicable cover depth and optimum member thickness according to loading conditions. These would be useful data for design and manufacture of sandwich type semicircular arch.
