    Abstract

    In this paper, a prediction of V-factor, the correction factor for the plasticity interaction between the primary stress and secondary stress, for the cracked pipe under combined mechanical and thermal stresses with significant elastic followup is presented. Recently, present authors suggested enhanced V-factor solution using failure assessment curve, which is less conservative than R6 code. However, this solution is limited to weak elastic follow-up condition. the degree of elastic followup is related to the variations of Vo with β according to this study. Based on this observation, a prediction solution for the V-factor which can be applied to the crack assessment ranging from weak elastic follow-up condition to strong elastic followup condition is proposed.
