摘要
This study aimed at modeling cracks as a rectangular shape to predict crack growth for fitness-for-service as-sessments. Crack extension driving force was represented by a newly proposed line propagation stress intensity factor (LP-SIF), in which, not a point, but a line on a crack front was assumed to grow in the virtual crack extension for the elastic J-integral calculation. LP-SIF could be derived using the conventional point propagation SIF. It was shown that growth prediction of a rectangular crack using the LP-SIF was more conservative than that obtained by crack growth simulation, in which crack growth was calculated at each node along the crack front. In order to apply the LP-SIF for general use, LP-SIF solutions for various pipe and crack geometries and stress distributions were obtained by finite element analyses. The accuracy of the obtained SIFs was confirmed by comparing with analysis results obtained by two research organizations.
