Assessing the influence of crack width on the durability potential of cracked concrete using the durability index approach by Kanjee, Janina Prakash

“…RC structures both in service and new, are subject to cracking. Irrespective of the cause of the cracking, cracks can increase the rate of penetration of aggressive species into concrete and modify the transport properties. …”

Stress corrosion cracking of nuclear grade steels by Gammon, M A

“…The mechanical properties of the 508 type materials are strongly influenced by the heat treated condition and mildly influenced by the service environment. In the quenched condition anodic intergranular stress corrosion cracking is severe in the chloride solution and it is argued that the absence of intergranular cracking in the sulphate solution is due to the over aggressiveness of this environment. …”

Determination of shakedown boundary and fitness-assessment-diagrams of cracked pipe bends by ElSaadany, Mostafa

“…However, scarce information is found within the literature regarding the determination of the shakedown boundary of cracked pipe bends. The current research outcomes include the determination of shakedown boundary for a circumferentially cracked 90-degree pipe bend via a simplified technique utilizing the finite element method, and introduction of Failure-Assessment-Diagrams (FAD) in compliance with the API 579 Failure-for-Service assessment of pressure vessel and piping components. …”
