Stress Intensity Factors for a Curved-Front Internal Crack in an Autofrettaged Tube With Bauschinger Effect
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Pressure vessel steels exhibit the Bauschinger effect that significantly reduces post-autofrettage residual compressive hoop stresses in the near-bore region in comparison with ‘ideal’ (elastic-perfectly plastic) behavior. These reduced hoop stress profiles were calculated using Von Mises’ criterion via a nonlinear analysis for the case of open-end (engineering plane strain) autofrettage. These profiles were then used to obtain stress intensity factor solutions via the Boundary Integral Equation (BIE) method, commonly known as the Boundary Element Method (BEM). Results are presented for tubes of diameter ratio 2 and 2.5 with an internal semi-elliptical surface crack having a maximum depth/surface length ratio of 0.4 (i.e., an eccentricity of 0.8). Crack depths range from 20% to 80% of wall thickness and results are presented for seven locations on the crack front from maximum depth to free surface. For crack depths up to 20% of wall thickness there is a significant reduction in magnitude of autofrettage stress intensity factor due to Bauschinger effect. For typical overstrain levels this reduction is approximately 30% of “ideal” values. Such a reduction may, in turn, cause an order of magnitude reduction in the fatigue lifetime of the vessel.

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.
