Abstract
This paper will examine some of the considerations for using finite element analysis when evaluating pressure vessels constructed using the layered-shell construction. Since the layers of the shell interact through contact and at the circumferential welds, these particular aspects are discussed. Special attention is paid to the proper selection of the initial gap between the layers. The use of an elastic-plastic stress-strain curve is also discussed. Since the material model is non-linear, the path-dependency of the loading sequence is demonstrated, including the inclusion of the initial hydrostatic test. The techniques presented will be demonstrated using an example of a typical layered shell pressure vessel. Since the evaluation of this type of vessel is usually undertaken in a fitness-for-service sense, and fatigue is often the primary damage mechanism, the remaining fatigue life of this typical pressure vessel is calculated.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
