N. Bock et Jl. Zeman, ON BENDING STRESSES AT LONGITUDINAL WELD JOINTS OF CYLINDRICAL-SHELLSDUE TO PEAKING, International journal of pressure vessels and piping, 60(1), 1994, pp. 103-106
Angular misalignment at longitudinal weld joints has been discussed in
the literature. For the local type of peaking, various formulae for t
he additional bending stresses have been proposed, especially with reg
ard to second-order theory effects. In this technical note a (power se
ries) approximation for the local type of peaking is presented and com
pared with numerical results obtained via a finite element analysis.
