STRAIN BEHAVIOR ANALYSIS OF STEEL S235JRH RING SPECIMENS

Abstract

Different pipe manufacturing techniques, such as the manufacture of seamless pipes in the oil sector employing a conical shaft, necessitate data on the circumferential strain and stress condition of the pipe. The purpose of this study was to evaluating the displacement, strain, and stress behavior of a pipe ring tensile specimen (PRTS) in the hoop direction, as there was a lack of a standardized testing methodology. Five single S235JRH steel PRTS were tested for the study. The study describes how to test S235JRH steel PRTS with a Digital Image Correlation approach. The 3D Digital Image Correlation technique methodology was used to record the evolution of the strain. In the break zone and almost equivalent locations, all Single PRTS fractured. The experimental ultimate strength value's deviation value (also known as the real stress value) is greater than the theoretical ultimate strength value.
