O knihe
Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2012 in the subject Engineering - Mechanical Engineering, grade: cum laude (gut), Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), course: Mechanical Engineering, language: English, abstract: The primary focus of this work is to investigate the influence of residual stresses on thermomechanical
fatigue (TMF) life predictions. Both experimental and numerical methods
have been adapted in order to predict the lifetimes of dissimilarly welded superheater tubing
in power plants. The fatigue behavior and lifetime predictions of such components
are complicated at high temperatures since a complex interaction between thermally activated,
time-dependent processes are involved. At the same time, components that operate
at elevated temperatures are often subjected to transient temperatures due to start-up and
shut-down where thermally induced cyclic stresses can occur. The superposition of thermal
transients with mechanical load cycles along with unequal heating of parts of a component
result in a complex evolution of damage, leading to TMF failure of the component. To add
to the complexity, the degradation mechanisms relevant to welded power plant components
can be accelerated by the presence of residual stresses.
