Abstract
Stress intensity factors characterize the stress state near a crack tip or defect. They are crucial for understanding crack propagation behavior and failure of thin-walled cylindrical pressure vessels. This article discusses stress intensity factor solutions for longitudinal, circumferential and interacting cracks in cylindrical vessels, and how they can be used to assess integrity and reliability.
