A 90° back-to-back pipe bend structure subjected to cyclic in-plane bending moment and
steady internal pressures is analysed by means of the Linear Matching Method (LMM) in …

The pressurized capsule structure provides the pressure environment for astronauts or
payloads in space, which is thus considered as the most crucial structural component for …

No experimental data exist within open literature, to the best knowledge of the author, for
determining shakedown boundaries of 90° back-to-back pipe bends. Ninety degree back-to …

A novel approach is presented based upon the Linear Matching Method framework in order
to directly calculate the ratchet limit of structures subjected to arbitrary thermo‐mechanical …

Analytical ratchet limits of cylindrical pipelines subjected to several typical cyclic
nonproportional loading combinations, such as internal pressure, tension, compression …

Determining the boundary between the shakedown and ratcheting domains (ratchet
boundary) for a component using cyclic elastic-plastic analysis is computationally very …

This paper proposes an innovative concept for the design of an experimental testing
programme suitable for causing Low Cycle Fatigue crack initiation in a bespoke complex …

This research studies the effect of wall thinning on generated shakedown (SD) interaction

As the main component of the crewed spacecraft, the space capsule used for future space
missions, especially for the deep-space explorations, must be safe, lightweight, and …

Subsea pipelines are generally used to transfer hydrocarbons from ultra-deep seawater to
facilities on the shore. Typically, sandwich pipelines are filled with polymeric cores for …
