Numerical validation of burst pressure estimation equations for steam generator tubes with multiple axial surface cracks

This paper provides further validation of the burst pressure estimation equations for multiple axial surface cracked steam generator tubes, recently proposed by the authors based on analytical local collapse load approach against systematic FE damage analysis results of Alloy 690 tubes with twin axi...
