Ductile Crack Growth

Welding residual stress is one of the main concerns in the process of fabrication and operation because of failures in welded steel joints due to its potential effect on structural integrity. This work focuses on the effect of welding residual stress on the ductile crack growth behavior in AISI 316LN welded CT specimens. Two-dimensional plane strain model has been used to simulate the CT specimen. X-ray diffraction technique is used to obtain residual stress value at the SS 316LN weld joint. The GTN model has been employed to estimate the ductile crack growth behavior in the CT-specimen. Results show that residual stresses influence the ductile crack growth behavior. The effect of residual stress has also been investigated for cases with different initial void volume fraction, crack lengths.

Ductile Crack Growth

Abstract Fitness for service rules and a calculation method for ductile crack growth under large scale plastic cyclic loading have not been established even for Mode I. In a paper presented at the PVP2018 conference the authors presented methods to establish how to determine the parameters of the combined hardening plasticity rule and applied it to simulate the ductile crack growth behavior of 1TCT specimens of the different load levels. Also, ΔJ calculations using the reference stress method, and a ΔJ-basis fatigue crack growth rate derived from that on ΔK-basis according to JSME rules for FFS were applied to estimate the crack growth under cyclic loading in excess of yield. Since in the 2018 paper identified some gaps were found between experiments and the predicted crack growth behavior, several equations of the reference stress method are evaluated in the present paper. Additionally, the prediction procedure using the ΔJ calculation by the reference stress method and the da/dN−ΔJ curve based on the JSME rules for FFS are applied to pipe fracture tests under cyclic loading. Their applicability is discussed for the case of an example piping system.

Zone Modeling

Cohesive zone modeling has been shown to be a convenient and effective method to simulate and analyze the ductile crack growth behavior in fracture specimens and structures. However, the cohesive zone modeling has not been applied to simulate the ductile crack growth behavior of a circumferential through-wall cracked pipe. In this paper, cohesive zone modeling has been applied to simulate the ductile crack growth of a past through-wall-cracked pipe test that was conducted during Degraded Piping Program. The ABAQUS code was used for the three-dimensional finite element analysis. The bending moment at crack initiation, maximum bending moment, crack extension, and J-integral values were calculated from the finite element analysis. These results were compared with the experimental results. In addition, results obtained from an existing J-estimation scheme (LBB.ENG2) were provided for comparison. All results showed reasonable agreement. The results of the present study demonstrate that the cohesive zone modeling can be applied to simulate the ductile crack growth behavior of a through-wall cracked pipe.

Hardening Rules

The ductile crack growth calculation method under excessive cyclic loading has not been established in the rules for fitness for service, even for Mode I. On the paper for the PVP2017 conference, the authors simulated ductile crack growth behavior of CT specimens under cyclic loading within a committee of the Japan Welding Society, and showed that the Chaboche model and bilinear kinetic hardening rules underestimated the load in compression. The discrepancy between the prediction results and the experimental results were also shown to become larger with increasing load cycle number. In this paper, the authors tried to establish how to determine the parameters of the combined hardening rule and then applied it to simulate the ductile crack growth behavior of the 1TCT specimens for loading levels different from that of last year. Also, the simplified ΔJ calculation, for example the reference stress method, and the crack growth rate from the JSME rules for FFS were applied to estimate the ductile crack growth. Based on this approach, the crack growth analysis method was investigated in order to incorporate into the JSME rules for large cyclic loading.

Ductile Crack Growth

Ductile crack growth calculation method under excessive cyclic loading in a fitness for service rule has not been established even in Mode I. The authors simulated ductile crack growth behavior of CT specimens under cyclic loading executed in a committee of the Japan Welding Society. Sensitivity of the used stress-strain curves by monotonic or cyclic loading and the effect of the hardening rule were investigated. For evaluation of the crack growth rate under excessive cyclic loading, the parameter ΔJ was applied and compared with the rate of the JSME rules for FFS.

This paper presents experimental and analytical results focusing on the strain limit of X80 linepipe. Ductile crack growth behavior from a girth weld notch is simulated by FE analysis based on a proposed damage model and is compared with the experimental results. The simulation model for ductile crack growth accompanied by penetration through the wall thickness consists of two criteria. One is a criterion for ductile crack initiation from the notch-tip, which is described by the plastic strain at the notch tip, because the onset of ductile cracking can be expressed by constant plastic strain independent of the shape and size of the components and the loading mode. The other is a damage-based criterion for simulating ductile crack extension associated with damage evolution influenced by plastic strain in accordance with the stress triaxiality ahead of the extending crack tip. The proposed simulation model is applicable to prediction of ductile crack growth behaviors from a circumferentially-notched girth welded pipe with high internal pressure, which is subjected to tensile loading or bending (post-buckling) deformation.
