Abstract
In order to assess the structural integrity of tubular members or pipes containing circumferential through‐wall cracks, their stress intensity factor solutions are required. While stress intensity factors for tension and bending are available, few solutions exist for the case of torsion, even though these components may also be subjected to torque. In this paper, the finite element method is used to compute the stress intensity factors for this...
