This book explores a new, economically viable approach to pressure vessel design, included in the (harmonized) standard EN 13445 (for unfired pressure vessels) and based on linear as well as non-linear Finite Element analyses. It is intended as a supporting reference of this standard's route, providing background information on the underlying principles, basic ideas, presuppositions, and new notions. Examples are included to familiarize readers with this approach, to highlight problems and solutions, advantages and disadvantages.* The only book with background information on the direct route in pressure vessel design. * Contains many worked examples, supporting figures and tables and a comprehensive glossary of terms.
THERMOELASTICITY-the generalization of elasticity to nonisothermal deformations-has made considerable progress during the last two decades. Its basic theory is now well established, and many applications to problems in engineering have been successfully made. In writing this book it has been my aim to give, in a relatively small volume, an up-to-date presentation of those parts of thermoelasticity which, in my opinion, are of basic importance in the field. The theoretical back ground, together with the corresponding methods of solution, is developed first in each chapter and is followed by 'carefully selected examples intended to serve not only as illustrations of the theory but also as sour...
Das Buch behandelt das Thema "Sicherheitsziele und Schutzaspekte als Grundlage f}r Technische Standards in Europa - dargestellt am Beispiel druckf}hrender Umschlie~ungen". Es umfa~t die Ergebnisse einer internationalen Tagung der Gottlieb Daimler- und Karl Benz-Stiftung am 2. Mai 1990 in Ladenburg, an der Fachleute aus vier L{ndern der Europ{ischen Gemeinschaft und einem EFTA-Mitgliedsland teilgenommen haben. Hintergrund der durch das Kolleg "Sicherheit von Technik" veranla~ten Veranstaltung waren die derzeitigen Bestrebungen der Europ{ischen Kommission, die gesetzlichen Regelungen und daraus abgeleitete technische Normen zum Schutz vor nachteiligen Wirkungen technischer Einrichtungen mit Blick auf den gemeinsamen Markt ab 1993 zu vereinheitlichen. Angesichts der oft durch unklare Zielvorgaben bedingten kontroversen Arbeit in den Normungsgremien CEN und CENELEC, insbesondere auch f}r den Bereich der Druckbeh{ltertechnik, sollte gekl{rt werden, ob und wann, worin und wie stark sich nationale Zielsetzungen unterscheiden

Annotation This volume of proceedings from the August 2002 conference presents developments affecting pressure vessel and piping codes and standards. The 36 papers discuss plastic analysis in pressure vessel design, environmental fatigue issues, the structural integrity of pressure components, and recent changes in Section III rules for seismic piping design. Topics include the effects of local peak stress distribution on the ratchet limit, fatigue design curves for austenitic stainless steels in light water reactor environments, new common design rules for u-tube heat exchangers, and simulation of excessive deformation of piping due to seismic and weight loads.
