Course details

This course provides a thorough review of solid mechanics principles tailored specifically for engineers involved in the design, analysis, and assessment of static equipment such as pressure vessels, storage tanks, and heat exchangers. It covers the fundamental concepts of stress, strain, elasticity, plasticity, bending, torsion, and failure theories, while also connecting these principles to practical applications in static equipment design. The program emphasizes how solid mechanics underpins key codes and standards used in the industry, including ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and ASME B31.3 Process Piping Code, helping engineers interpret code rules and apply engineering judgment in real-world scenarios. Through worked examples, case studies, and problem-solving exercises, participants will develop the skills needed to analyze complex load conditions, evaluate structural integrity, and ensure safe, efficient, and code-compliant designs.

Module 4 dragged a bit, and the labs assume you’ve already got a Caesar II license and units set up, which wasn’t spelled out. That said, the content mirrored issues we’re seeing in our current sprint on piping arch and infra. The anchor motion example in Chapter 6 stuck, especially how it walked through SSE vs OBE and why the load cases split the way they do. I’ve dealt with similar checks in oilgas work, but the modal combination section (CQC vs SRSS) finally lined up with how I see results in prod reviews. It’s not fluff; it ties back to decisions you’d make before opening a PR on calc changes. Helped clear out a lot of technical clutter I’d been carrying around.

Feels built by someone who's had to defend Caesar II runs in prod reviews, not just teach theory. The Response Spectrum section where he tunes damping to 2% vs 5% and fixes the modal participation table stuck; that's exactly the kind of cleanup I've done before sign-off on oilgas jobs. Some pacing was uneven and I wasn't sold on the quick skip past nozzle flexibility, wished there was more on that. Rare to see course material map this closely to day-to-day prod work.

Material here goes beyond what the vendor manuals spell out, and that’s useful when you’re already running Caesar II in prod and things don’t add up. The advanced focus shows, especially in the section on modal combination where the instructor walks through CQC vs SRSS and then tweaks damping to show why the stress jump wasn’t a solver bug. That moment in Chapter 3, flipping the support from rigid to bilinear and watching RPS redistribute, stuck with me. It reads like an engineer reviewing a PR, not marketing copy, and the arch-level framing maps well to oilgas piping where infra constraints dominate. I wasn't sold on the brief detour into time history setup; wished there was more on obs when results drift between runs. still, my turnaround on ugly vibration cases is faster now, mostly because I’m checking the right knobs earlier.

The course lays a workable path through a messy subject without hand-waving. The moment that stuck was the API-579 Part 9 Level 2 FAD walk-through using the circumferential crack in a girth weld, especially how K_I and reference stress were pulled from the tables. As a grad entrant, it helped connect theory to prod decisions in oilgas; it's like seeing the arch behind an approval PR, not just equations. wasn't sold on the short J-integral aside, and I've wished for more on fatigue crack growth rates, but it closed gaps I didn't know I had.

Questions and Answers

A: A: The sustained case uses reduced wall once corrosion allowance is applied; Z drops and SL climbs. That's exactly what you're seeing. B: 90°C carbon steel is nowhere near creep territory. C: Modulus affects displacement stress, not SL in Caesar’s sustained combination. D: Gas density changes are negligible compared to steel weight and weren't modified in the model history.

A: A: A shoe plus guide on GA means axial restraint; missing it changes load paths and nozzle loads. B: Under COMAH, GA is a controlled document, not a sketch. C: Caesar doesn’t infer guides from geometry; restraints are explicit. D: Elevation errors matter, but restraint definition drives force distribution.

A: A: Settlement shifts load gradually and shows up as a trend across tests. B: A data error wouldn’t change between physical tests. C: Thermal effects don’t influence cold load readings. D: Vendor issues don’t evolve linearly after installation.

A: A: Movement plus sensitive equipment below points straight to a spring. B: A rigid rest would dump growth into the pump nozzle. C: An axial stop traps expansion and spikes stress. D: Constants are for large load variation, not just displacement magnitude.
