...Bingjun Gao; Xiaohui Chen; Xiaoping Shi; Junhua Dong An important issue in engineering application of the “design by analysis” approach in pressure vessel design is how to decompose an overall stress field obtained by finite element analysis into different stress categories defined in the ASME B...

...Donald Mackenzie; Hongjun Li The allowable plastic load in pressure vessel design by analysis is determined by applying a graphical construction to a characteristic load-deformation plot of the collapse behavior of the vessel. This paper presents an alternative approach to the problem. The plastic...
