A test for evaluation of resistance to ductile fracture (crack tip opening angle, CTOA) was found to reveal changes in crack propagation through the strain and strength gradients near weld joints in X100 pipeline steels. This test provides a long ligament
… and application of this model to predict the heating of steel members when exposed to a standard fire during fire … is verified by comparing the predicted heating profile of steel members at several locations during the tests with … events and the resultant fireproofing dislodgement from steel members were numerically investigated and compared with …
