Closed-Form Stress Intensity Factor Solutions for Deep Surface Cracks in Plates
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Materials made of Alloy 82/182/600 used in light-water reactors are known to be susceptible to stress corrosion cracking. It is known that the depth a of some cracks due to primary water stress corrosion cracking is larger than the half-length c. The stress intensity factor solution for cracks plays an important role to predict crack propagation and failure. However, Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code does not provide the solutions for cracks with large aspect ratios a/c. In this study, closed-form stress intensity factor influence coefficients for deep surface cracks in plates are discussed. The crack tip stress distribution is represented by a fourth degree polynomial equation. Influence coefficient tables obtained by using finite element analysis in previous studies are used for curve fitting. The closed-form solutions for the coefficient were developed at the surface points and the deepest points of the cracks with aspect ratio a/c ranged from 1.0 to 8.0. The solutions for the points where the stress intensity factor reaches maximum were also investigated.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
