Comments And Assumptions
The original design criteria were in accordance with a recognised code or standard.
The dent is an inward deviation on a cylindrical shell.
The component is subjected only to internal pressure and the supplemental loads are assumed to be negligible.
The component is not operating in the creep range.
The component is not in cyclic service.
The material has sufficient toughness to prevent brittle fracture.
The hoop stress is assumed to be dominating and the longitudinal or axial stress is negligible.

Limitations

Warnings
The tensile properties belong to the latest edition of the design code. Please make sure the value conforms with the original
design document.
