Thank You Sandip,
It is really nice post on Stress Linearization.
Now I am pretty clear about the differences of Ansys and ASME code in terms of stress linearization.
I have one question,
why ASME Sec VIII Div2 Annex 5.A.4.1.2 neglects the local component stress parallel to the SCL or...
Hi Soave,
Thank you very much for sharing the spreadsheet. It helped me a lot.
As I am observing, there is difference in ansys results and calculated results for bending stress values in my case.
According to spreadsheet Von-Mises bending stress is 247 Mpa and in Ansys it is 198 Mpa.
Hi Soave,
As you mentioned that your calculated values are matching with Ansys result values.
Can you please show me the same for Bending stress calculations according to "Sb=[(Σ1n-1(Sij[i]*(t/2 - X[i])/t)+ (Sij[0]*(t/2 - X[0])/t)/2 + (Sij[n]*(t/2 - X[n])/t)/2]/n"?
