摘要
In this study, creep crack initiation and creep crack growth in welded structure are analysed. An interaction phenomenon between base metal and weld metal in a cross weld plate is highlighted with a finite element model. A simplified method based on the reference stress approach is proposed to evaluate C* in welded structures. This simplified method is applied for creep crack initiation and creep crack growth assessments in the case of a double edge notched tension cross-welded plate, Correlations between crack initiation time and C* on the one hand, and between creep crack growth rate and C* on the other hand are used. Creep crack initiation time estimation for the full size welded plate is very conservative when crack initiation properties of CT specimen are used. Concerning creep crack growth evaluation, simplified estimation is in good agreement with experimental results when CT specimen crack propagation properties are used. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.
