Creep and Long-Term Strength Modeling for Thick-Walled Tubes under Combined Loading with Axial Force, Torsional Moment and Internal Pressure

We have developed a method for solving the boundary-value problem of rheological deformation and creep rupture of thick-walled tube under combined loading with axial force, torsional moment and internal pressure. Energetic variant of the theory of creep and long-term strength is used to describe creep process. Experimental verification of proposed method has been performed using known test data for creep and long-term strength of thick-walled tubes made of D16T alloy and Steel~20. Calculated dependencies for total axial strain and torsion angle on time are obtained.
