Abstract
In this paper, a strain capacity assessment on high-strain marine pipe was carried out by comparing the crack growth driving force and the crack growth resistance. The crack growth driving force was given by FEA, the stress-stain relationship was given by a DIC tensile test, and the crack growth resistance was given by a single-edge notched tensile (SENT) test using a single-specimen flexibility method. The proposed approach was compared with the failure assessment curve and validated against full-scale tests with a girth weld notch. The results of the full-scale tests showed that the assessment method using FEA was more accurate and the result of the failure assessment curve assessment was more conservative.
