The interaction of pressure, in-plane moment and torque loadings on piping elbows
2003
This study concerns the load interaction behaviour of 90° smooth piping elbows with circular cross-section and long straight tangent pipes. The finite element method is used for stress analysis of elbows having a wide range of bend and pipe factors. The main aim of the study is to establish the first yield interaction behaviour when an elbow is subjected to a combination loading of in-plane bending, torsion and internal pressure. The study shows that load interaction is influenced by pipe factor, bend radius and load coupling effect, with thinner elbows being affected to a larger degree.
