critical evaluation of the feasibility of obtaining crack growth parameters from quasi-static bend tests is presented. First derived are the governing differential equations which characterize the time-history of bend test parameters for a given elastic material exhibiting power law crack growth beh

The paper analyses simple models that simulate the effect of pipe bends on the stability of a circumferential through-wall crack in a Type 304 stainless steel piping system that is subject to fixed displacement loadings, which are appropriate for an accident condition. The instability criterion is e
Proceeding from the experimental observation that circumferenFia1 crack growth in circular cylindrical pipes subject to bending loads is associated with a constant crack tip opening angle, the JR curve is predicted in terms of the pipe and crack parameters. The predictions compare favorably with exp
