Description

In many cases when linear elastic analysis for the response of a piping system to time-dependent forces and displacements fails to satisfy the requirements of Section III of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code it is possible to verify the adequacy of the design by using nonlinear plastic analysis. This paper presents a procedure for performing a time-history plastic analysis utilizing general purpose or piping analysis computer programs. It provides novice stress analysts with an informative guide on some specific requirements, applications, notes of warnings and realistic examples for the practical implementation of such an analysis.
