Investigation on ultimate strength of thin wall tee pipe for sodium cooled fast reactor under seismic loading

It is important to investigate the failure mode and ultimate strength of piping components in order to evaluate the seismic integrity of piping. Many failure tests of thick wall and high pressure piping for Light Water Reactors (LWRs) have been conducted, and the results suggest that the failure mo...
