New weld filler materials and fabrication processes are capable of eliminating toughness losses associated with fast-neutron irradiation of reactor pressure vessel (RPV) weldments in new nuclear power ...

Pressure vessels are the names given to closed containers that house gases or liquids at a significantly different pressure to ambient pressure. Given that safety and reliability are two key factors ...

Pressure vessels (previous to CTD’s Type V breakthrough, see Next-generation pressure vessels) have been classified in four categories, based on their construction. Each type has assets and ...

All over the world, pressure vessels are being pressed into service beyond their design lifetimes. Advances in machine learning can lead to the deployment of increasingly reliable non-destructive ...
