Abstract

Pressure vessels are critical components in various industries, and their failure can have catastrophic consequences. One of the critical factors that can affect the failure of pressure vessels is the presence of cracks. In this study, we investigate the effect of semi-elliptical cracks on the failure of pressure vessels using finite element analysis. We designed and modeled a pressure vessel with a semi-elliptical crack and conducted a series of simulations to investigate the effect of the crack size, orientation, and location on the stress intensity factors and the failure of the vessel. Our results show that the presence of semi-elliptical cracks significantly affects the stress intensity factors and the failure of pressure vessels. The study highlights the importance of considering the presence of cracks in the design and operation of pressure vessels to ensure their safe and reliable operation.
