Optimum design of internal upset geometry of drill pipe for longer fatigue life: Tsukano, Y., Miyoshi, H., Sogo, Y., Nishi, S. and Takeuchi, E. Nippon Steel Technical Report Jan. 1990 (44), 37–42

Abstract

The paper gives a bibliographical review of finite element methods(FEMs) applied for the analysis of pressure vessel structures/components and piping from the theoretical as well as practical points of view. This bibliography is a new addendum to the Finite elements in the analysis of pressure vessels and piping—a bibliography [1], [2], [3]. The listings at the end of the paper contain 856 references to papers and conference proceedings on the subject that were published in 2001–2004. These are classified in the following categories: linear and nonlinear, static and dynamic, stress and deflection analyses; stability problems; thermal problems; fracture mechanics problems; contact problems; fluid–structure interaction problems; manufacturing of pipes and tubes; welded pipes and pressure vessel components; development of special finite elements for pressure vessels and pipes; finite element software; and other topics.
