Key topics covered

Various topics that will be covered

Code key design aspects of failure mechanisms for piping and pressure vessels will be addressed with respect to code requirements.
The mechanisms that will be covered are Ratchetting, Low cycle fatigue including cyclic plasticity, Brittle fracture and Gross plastic deformation.
Areas where code requirements can be supplemented with deeper understanding of the failure mechanisms will be highlighted.
The issue of blast loading and potential approaches with respect to allowable stress.
Design of thick cylinders

Course Details

Codes are not text books or technical publications which provide technical basis for the rules/recommendations stated therein. The technical discussions that take place in the code committees are not in public domain. Using the code rules without understanding their limitations and strengths can often result in over or under design . Also codes generally allow advanced techniques/state of the art to be used to optimise designs and if code users are not aware of the technical background behind code rules, then cannot take advantage of these techniques as they are not sure of when to use them.

The objective of the presentation will be to provide a high level view of this issue citing specific examples. The presentation will be focussing on ASME B31.3 and ASME SEC VIII Division 1 and Division 2 .
