This article gives an overview of the use of cross-weld and compact tension specimen modelling and analyses data to characterise creep behaviour of the high-temperature components. Cross-weld and compact tension specimens are used to describe creep c... Read More about Practical considerations of the use of cross-weld and compact tension specimens’ creep data.

Micromechanical finite element modelling of thermo-mechanical fatigue for P91 steels (2016)
Journal Article
Li, D., Barrett, R. A., O’Donoghue, P. E., Hyde, C. J., O’Dowd, N. P., & Leen, S. B. (2016). Micromechanical finite element modelling of thermo-mechanical fatigue for P91 steels. International Journal of Fatigue, 87, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijfatigue.2015.11.025

In this paper, the cyclic plasticity and fatigue crack initiation behaviour of a tempered martensite ferritic steel under thermo-mechanical fatigue conditions is examined by means of micromechanical finite element modelling. The crystal plasticity-ba... Read More about Micromechanical finite element modelling of thermo-mechanical fatigue for P91 steels.

A comparison of simple methods to incorporate material temperature dependency in the Green’s function method for estimating transient thermal stresses in thick-walled power plant components (2016)
Journal Article
Rouse, J., & Hyde, C. J. (in press). A comparison of simple methods to incorporate material temperature dependency in the Green’s function method for estimating transient thermal stresses in thick-walled power plant components. Materials, 9(1), https://doi.org/10.3390/ma9010026

The threat of thermal fatigue is an increasing concern for thermal power plant operators due to the increasing tendency to adopt “two-shifting” operating procedures. Thermal plants are likely to remain part of the energy portfolio for the foreseeable...
