Dimensioning of thick-walled pipe in creep
Zouhar, Michal ; Hutař, Pavel ; Náhlík, Luboš ; Hlavoň, P.
The numerical simulations of the creep in the case of X10CrMoVNb91 steel were performed. Geometry of the objects studied well-fit usual parts of the pipe system. The discrepancies between numerical simulations and usual standard Design By Formula (DBF) used for the pipe system lifetime prediction were found. Therefore, accurate numerical simulations based on creep description of the material behaviour is necessary for the accurate estimation of the service conditions.

Simulation of the crack growth in the weld of the polyolefin pipes
Ševčík, Martin ; Hutař, Pavel ; Náhlík, Luboš
The aim of this work was to study the effect of the material properties change due to the butt welding on the stress intensity factor in polyolefin pipe. The gradient change of the Young’s modulus was assumed. The crack was located in the middle of the affected zone. The stress intensity factors estimated in both graded region and basic material (homogenous case) were compared. Strong influence of the graded region on the value of the stress intensity factor was observed. Therefore, for realistic estimation of the welded pipe lifetime the change of the material properties inside the polymer weld should be taken into account.

Fracture behaviour of ceramic cellular solids under tensile loading
Řehořek, Lukáš ; Dlouhý, Ivo ; Chlup, Zdeněk
Cellular structures are promising type of architecture for a lot of materials whether made of metals, plastic or ceramic aimed at applications where lightweight, damping and and/or stiff properties are required. For trouble-free use of this materials all types of mechanical behaviour have to be known. The tensile tests of open cell ceramic foam material based on alumina are presented in this paper and complemented of acoustic emission data and digital image correlation for measuring deformations. From the results follows that ceramic foams under tensile loading behave significantly different from widely used compressive or bending tests.

The properties of Eurofer´97 steel for developed fusion and fission reactors
Stratil, Luděk ; Hadraba, Hynek ; Dlouhý, Ivo
Ferritic martensitic steel show limited swelling and susceptibility to helium effects and can be made from low activation composition. These properties made them the reference steel for the development of breeding blankets in fusion power plants and also for components of fission power plants. Eurofer´97 is presently being characterized in the EU in order to obtain design data for blanket modules to be tested in International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER). In this contribution metallurgical (microstructural and mechanical) properties and thermal thermal treatment for such applications are briefly introduced.
