A numerical methodology for lifetime estimation of HDPE pressure pipes
Abstract
Using linear elastic fracture mechanics a new methodology for a lifetime assessment of internally pressurized polymer pipes was developed. The concept is based on the numerical calculation of stress intensity factors for pipes under different loading conditions in combination with experimentally determined creep crack growth kinetics. Comparison of simulated lifetimes with experimental data from tests of internally pressurized pipes proved the...
