Autofrettage -- Stress Distribution under Load and Retained Stresses After Depressurization -- A Modified Plane-Strain Case
by Boaz Avitzur
This book examines stress distribution in autofrettage under load and retained stresses after depressurization, focusing on a modified plane-strain case. It offers engineers a precise analysis of pressure vessel mechanics, enhancing design and performance evaluation in high-pressure applications.
About This Book
Autofrettage is a key technique in pressure vessel design, involving controlled over-pressurization to enhance strength. This book delves into the stress distribution that occurs during the loading phase of autofrettage.
The analysis covers how stresses are generated and distributed within the material under applied load. It provides a detailed examination suitable for engineers working with high-pressure systems.
Following depressurization, the retained stresses are critical for understanding long-term performance. The book addresses these residual effects in a structured manner.
A modified plane-strain case is introduced to refine the modeling assumptions. This approach offers improved accuracy for specific autofrettage applications.
Authored by Boaz Avitzur, the content draws on established principles in mechanics to support practical implementations in industry.
