... locations of the sphere. They showed that the results obtained from the two methods are in a close agreement and hence they emphasized the role of the Bauschinger effect in the design of spherical vessels, such as a high-blast containment tank. This paper once again showed the merits of VMP, and confirmed...

..., an austenitic heat-resistant HR3C (ASME TP310NbN) steel was developed for metal creep resistance. As the designed life time of a typical thermal plant is 150,000 h, it is very important to predict long-term creep behavior. In this study, a three-state variable continuum damage model (CDM) was modified...

In this case, the stress on sealing surface of gasket remains stable so that the leakage rate can keep in a stable range. Because of its unique structure in design, the inner contact stress of new MMC gasket increases...
