Stress categorization is an essential procedure in Design by Analysis (DBA) pressure vessel design methods based on elastic analysis in ASME and EN code. It was difficult to implement especially around structural discontinuities. A new elastic analysis, DBA-L, was proposed recently to avoid stress categorization. A model of the cylindrical pressure vessel with spherical end is used to check the validity of this method by comparing with other design methods based on stress categorization procedures and elastic-plastic stress analysis from ASME and EN code. The results indicate that the DBA-L is an economic and explicit method, and can be used an alternative method to stress categorization.

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.

An analytical elastic-plastic stress analysis is carried out on metal-matrix composite beams of arbitrary orientation, supported from two ends under a transverse uniformly distributed load. The composite layer consists of stainless steel fiber and aluminum matrix. The material is assumed to be perfectly plastic during the elastic–plastic solution. The intensity of the uniform force is chosen at a small value; therefore, the normal stress component is neglected in the elastic-plastic solution. The expansion of the plastic region and plastic stress component of σxare determined for orientation angles of 0, 30, 45, 60 and 90o. Plastic yielding occurs for 0 o and 90 o orientation angles on the lower and upper surfaces of the beam at the same distances from the mid-point. However, it starts first at the lower surface for 30, 45 and 60 o orientation angles.

In this study, an elastic-plastic stress analysis is carried out in a thermoplastic composite cantilever beam loaded by a bending moment at the free end. The composite beam is reinforced unidirectionally by steel fibers at 0, 30. 45, 60, and 90° orientation angles. An analytical solution is performed for satisfying both the governing differential equation in the plane stress case and boundary conditions for small plastic deformations. The solution is carried out under the assumption of the Bernoulli-Navier hypotheses. It is found that the intensity of the residual stress component of σ x is maximum at the upper and lower surfaces or at the boundary of the elastic and plastic regions. The composite material is assumed to be as hardening linearly. The Tsai-Hill theory is used as a yield criterion.
