Course details

This course provides engineers with a detailed understanding of non-linear behavior in piping systems, focusing on material, geometric, and contact non-linearities that significantly influence stress and displacement outcomes in piping design and analysis. Participants will learn how material non-linearities, such as plasticity and temperature-dependent behavior, affect pipe performance under operating loads.

Geometric non-linearities, including large deflections and buckling effects, are explored to understand their impact on system stability and safety. Contact non-linearities, such as gaps, snubbers, and support interactions, are also examined to highlight their role in real-world piping systems.

Through practical examples, case studies, and application in pipe stress analysis software, engineers will develop the skills to accurately model complex piping behavior, interpret results, and ensure compliance with codes like ASME B31.3 Process Piping Code and ASME B31J Standard.
