Strength of thin-walled structural elements with cracks under the conditions of creep

  • Published:
Materials Science Aims and scope

Abstract

By using a computational model of growth of high-temperature creep cracks in metallic materials formulated by the authors somewhat earlier [Fiz.-Khim. Mekh. Mater., 42, No. 2, 62–68 (2006)], we develop a procedure for the construction of the diagrams of ultimate stresses for cracked plates. This procedure forms the basis of a method used for the evaluation of high-temperature strength of thin-walled structural elements weakened by cracks. The accumulated numerical results are compared with the experimental data available from the literature.
