Abstract
Evaluation procedures on an allowable axial flaw in a pipe for fully plastic fracture is provided by limit load criteria in Appendix C-5000 of the ASME Code Section XI. However, flaw evaluation for ductile fracture using EPFM (Elastic Plastic Fracture Mechanics) criteria is not provided for axial flaw in the Appendix. Methodology of the flaw evaluation for ductile fracture using EPFM criteria is discussing at the Working Group on Pipe Flaw Evaluation of ASME Code Section XI. Many failure experiments on axially flawed pressurized pipes made of moderate toughness materials had been performed at Battelle Columbus Laboratories. Semi-empirical equations for predicting failure stresses were developed from these experiments. This paper describes a derivation of load multiplier, Z factor, based on Charpy V notch upper shelf energy (CVN) from failure stresses for moderate toughness materials based on the experiments, and proposes a flaw evaluation procedure to determine allowable axial flaw for a ductile fractured pipe using the EPFM criteria.

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
