2. Design by Analysis Pressure vessel design has been historically based on Design By Formula (DBF). Standard vessel configurations are sized using a series of simple formulae and charts
In addition to the Design by Formula route, many national codes and standards for pressure vessel and boiler design do provide for a Design By Analysis (DBA) route
3. Design by Analysis All these DBA routes in the major codes and standards in the pressure equipment field are based on the rules first proposed in the ASME Pressure Vessel and Boiler Code, which was formulated in the late 1950's before being released, originally for nuclear applications, in 1964
4. Design by Analysis All these routes lead to the same well-known problems, especially the stress categorization problem, and all are out-of-step with the continuing development of computer hardware and software
Further, all are focused on pressure, and possibly, and to a limited extent, temperature, treating other actions in an inflexible manner, giving them marginal attention only.
5. EN 13445-3 The DBA direct route in CEN's unfired pressure vessel standard prEN 13445-3 tries to avoid these problems:
by addressing the failure modes directly
by allowing for non-linear constitutive models
by applying a multiple safety factor format for the incorporation of actions other than pressure
by specifying mainly the principal technical goals of the standard together with some application rules as possible methods for the fulfillment of these goals.
6. Design by AnalysisDirect Route (DBA-DR) Design Principles
Application Rules
Partial Safety Factors
Non-linear Design Models
Design Checks
7. DBA-DR New Terminology! Action physical influence causing stress & strain
Effect response of a component to a specific action
Load Case a combination of coincident actions
Characteristic Value representative value which takes account of the variation of an action
8. DBA-DR New Terminology! Principle general statement, definition or requirement of a given failure mode
Application Rule procedure to determine whether a principle is satisfied
Design Check assessment of a component by means of an application rule
9. DBA-DR New Terminology! Limit State structural condition beyond which the design performance requirements of a component are not met
Resistance the limiting value for a given limit state of an action or effect
10. DBA-DR Methodology Specify Failure Mode & Limit State
Specify the Principle
Select an appropriate Application Rule
Carry out the Design Check
If the Principle is not satisfied, repeat with amended loading, geometry or material
11. (d) Design Checks Define the Load Case and specify Actions
Determine the Characteristic Value and calculate the Design Value of each action
Calculate the Effect of the actions
Calculate the Resistance of the component
Indicate whether or not the Principle is satisfied
12. Design Models Geometric model
Structural strains
Material model
Linear elastic ideal plastic
Tresca yield & associated flow rule
Deformation model
First/second order theory
Non-linear
13. Structural Strain Defined as the strain in a stress concentration free model
Idealized Design Model based on real geometry with exception of details which cause only local stress or strain concentration
14. Design Checks Gross Plastic Deformation (GPD)
Progressive Plastic Deformation (GPD)
Fatigue (F)
Instability (I)
Static Equilibrium (SE)
15. e.g. Design Check for GPD - 1 Specified Design Model
Geometry to provide structural strains
Linear elastic, ideal plastic
Tresca yield condition & flow rule
Design strength parameters
First-order deformation theory
Second-order for geometric weakening
16. e.g. Design Check for GPD - 2 Principle: Design Actions shall be carried by Design Models for
Proportional increase in actions
Stress free initial state
Limitation of maximum absolute value of principal structural strains
17. Design by Analysis: The Future? The Direct Route is a major step forward in Design by Analysis
Nevertheless Design By Formula remains the dominant approach
In an increasingly technically sophisticated society, it may be asked why this should be the case?
