Ramifications of Structural Deformations on Collapse Loads of Critically Cracked Pipe Bends Under In-Plane Bending and Internal Pressure
Finite-element analysis based on elastic–perfectly plastic material was conducted to examine the influence of structural deformations on collapse loads of circumferential through-wall critically cracked 90° pipe bends undergoing in-plane closing bending and internal pressure. The critical crack is d...
