Thanks for that ajose.
It would be good to have a look at a curve - do you have a good reference with a graph of the non linear properties?
Strangely the majority of books i have sourced on Steel properties do not provide much on teh changes in Young's Modulus.

Hello all,
I have an interesting problem with a micro GT and Recup combination.
Background:
Thermal expansion is wreaking havoc with bellows and pipework. I suspect a combination of unrelieved stresses in the fabricated pipes, and an incorrect config for the bellows.
Problem:
I would like to...
I am trying to conduct a simple FEA on a Stainless component that will experience temperatures in excess of 650 degrees C.
Problem:
I would like to change the material properties of the Steel i am using to establish the maximum deflection under load.
While my FEA package (ALGOR) will allow...
Engineers all,
Thank you for your advice, I thought it best to give some sort of update to the problem. Around the time of posting this question I conducted some rudimentary checks on the proposed system using Algor. It seems that for 15mm thick flange of circa 300mm diameter, the loss of one...
Fellow engineers - I have a problem.
Outline: Flange design theory and RsOT. Where can i aquire a design resource that covers the basic rules on designing an adequate flange?
Details: A gas turbine requires a seal at the combustor outlet. Our engine casing design prevents flange access over a...
