Plastic Stress

To save material, the safety factor of pressure vessel design standards is gradually decreased from 5.0 to 2.4 in ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Codes. So the design methods of pressure vessel should be more rationalized. Considering effects of material strain hardening and non-linear structural deformation, the elastic-plastic stress analysis is the most suitable for pressure vessels design at present. This paper is based on elastic-plastic theory and considers material strain hardening and structural deformation effects. Elastic-plastic stress analyses of pressure vessels are summarized. Firstly, expressions of load and structural deformation relationship were introduced for thin-walled cylindrical and spherical vessels under internal pressure. Secondly, the plastic instability for thin-walled cylindrical and spherical vessels under internal pressure were analysed. Thirdly, to prevent pressure vessels from local failure, the ductile fracture strain of materials was discussed.

Sixteen ASME standard torispherical heads attached to cylinders and subjected to internal pressure are analyzed as elastic and/or elastic-plastic shells using a new finite element. As basic elements, thin-walled frusta with curved meridians having common tangents and radii at the nodal circles are employed assuring good accuracy of the results. In the plastic analysis each wall-thickness was subdivided into concentric lamina in order to monitor the behavior of the material. The incremental law of plasticity in conjunction with the Mises yield condition and the associated flow rule were used in the inelastic range. The results of the analysis are presented in detail and are compared with the provisions of the ASME Pressure Vessel Code.
