Application of Fracture Mechanics Parameters to Spherical Storage Tank Integrity Assessment

Fracture mechanics parameters have been applied to assess pressure vessel integrity. The pressure vessel analysed here was the ammonia spherical tank (volume of 1800 m3, outer diameter 15.12 m, thickness 30 mm) where different cracks in the longitudinal and transverse butt joints were found. The fin...
