Evaluations of the piping system inelastic analysis computer program PIRAX2
Description
The report contains two sets of comparisons of inelastic test data with PIRAX2-Theory; i.e., ORNL beam tests and ORNL elbow tests. The purpose of these comparisons is to evaluate the accuracy of the simplified analytical techniques used in PIRAX2. The test data are on structures that are much simpler than piping systems but provide a fundamental basis for comparison. The report includes an analysis of a 3-anchor piping system to illustrate the relative simplicity of PIRAX2 input/output data and relatively small computer running time. Some areas of needed improvements in PIRAX2 are discussed
