Theoretical elastoplastic buckling of stringer stiffened cylindrical shells
1985
Abstract A linear analysis method is offered to predict the theoretical elastoplastic buckling of stringer stiffened cylindrical shells subjected to longitudinal loading. Welding residual stresses are taken into account in the calculation, but effects of geometrical imperfections and pre-buckling displacements are ignored. The examples analysed show a good correlation between the analytical results and those obtained experimentally with stocky models of moderate geometrical imperfections.
Investigating the effect of residual stress on hydrogen cracking in multi-pass robotic welding through process compatible non-destructive testing
2021
Abstract In this paper, the effect of Welding Residual Stress (WRS) on the size and morphology of hydrogen-induced cracks (HIC) is studied. Four samples were manufactured using a 6-axis welding robot and in two separate batches. The difference between the two batches was the clamping system used, which resulted in different amounts of welding deformation and WRS. The hydrogen cracks were intentionally manufactured in the samples using a localised water-quenching method, where water was sprayed over a specific weld pass in a predetermined position. The Phased-Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT) system was implemented during the welding process (high-temperature in-process method), to detect the …
