Abstract: | The problem of limit analysis for a cylinder–cylinder intersection forming a single mitred pipe bend subject to in-plane bending has been investigated. Lower bound analysis with new equations of force and moment equilibrium together with a higher number of parameters resulted in more stability as compared to a previous analysis of the same problem [PhD Thesis, The University of Manchester, 1991]. Concurrently, abaqus finite element plastic collapse moments were obtained as upper bounds to the problem. Two sets of results were compared, showing good agreement with each other. It could be finally concluded that the true limit moments are bounded in between. |
