Design and Analysis of Piping, Pressure Vessels, and Components (ASME Special Publication PVP-Vol. 120)

The final section on fatigue of high pressure vessels contains four papers.The first of these presents the application of fatigue crack growth in the analysis of an isostatic press.The second paper gives a thorough treatment of the problems associated with the fatigue design of threaded end closures.The third paper deals with the effects of changing production methods on the fatigue performance of autofrettaged cylinders that fail from the outside surface.And the final report is that of a rather extensive experimental study to measure and predict the fatigue performance of autofrettaged and outside diameter notched cylinders.
