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.

Steel Ribbon

Stress analysis of flat steel ribbon wound pressure vessels (FSRWPVs) is very difficult because they have a special discrete structure and complex pretensions exit in the flat steel ribbons, which are wound around the inner shell layer by layer. An analytical multilayered model for stress analysis is presented in this paper, which involves the effect of prestress in every flat steel ribbon layer as well as in the inner shell. Based on this model, an optimal design method for FSRWPV is suggested, which can assure a reasonable stress level and distribution along the wall thickness during the operation. A practical example of a large FSRWPV is finally given for illustration.

This paper derives the minimum-weight shapes of head closures for cylindrical pressure vessels. Head configurations, weights, and membrane stresses are obtained for thin-shell heads of isotropic materials with uniform internal pressure by restricting the knuckle shear stresses to constant values where possible and by minimizing the weight of prescribed-shape heads. Torispherical, ellipsoidal, and Biezeno-type heads with constant and varying thickness (neglecting the effects of bending) are investigated. Enclosed-volume constancy and supporting structures are also considered. Certain highly efficient shapes are obtained that weigh up to 11 per cent less than the corresponding hemispherical capping closure.

In this paper, formulation of elastic-plastic analysis of functionally graded (FG) spherical pressure vessels under internal pressure based on strain gradient plasticity is presented. The material properties are assumed to vary in a power law manner in the radial direction. A linear hardening rule for the material behavior in the plastic region is assumed. After deriving the governing differential equations, a closed form solution is obtained. At the first step, the obtained results were validated against other available results in the literature. Then the effects of changing the inner radius from a few micro-meters to one meter, FG power index and strain gradient coefficient on stress and plastic region size are studied based on classical and strain gradient theories. Also, the effect of internal pressure on the size of plastic region is studied.

The boundary integral equation (BIE) method for two-dimensional elastic-plastic stress analysis is applied to an internally pressurized thick-walled cylinder containing a radial crack. Two different types of material are considered, namely, an elastic-perfectly plastic material and a work-hardening material. The loading conditions applied include the case when the internal pressure also acts on the crack faces, and the case when it does not. Results are presented showing the plastic zone development in the cylinder and the variations of the fracture mechanics parameter, the J line integral, with increasing internal pressure.

This paper describes the construction of a new type pressure vessel using thin shell cross-helically wound interlocking steel strip, based on the technologies of interlocking strip-wound developed by Germany and flat steel ribbon wound by China which are code cases listed in ASME BPVC. Analysis and comparison between the new and the traditional structure types, and discussion on issues such as their stress characteristics, operation safety and manufacturing methods etc. are presented. It shows this new method of pressure vessel construction is feasible, cost effective, and well deserved of further studies.
