Failure analysis of process equipment

Research Experience:

He has been engaged in the research work on process equipment failure analysis for 20 years. More than 30 related research papers written by him mainly include the following three aspects. 

1. Parametric modeling and finite element analysis of special-shaped pressure vessels.

2. Lay design, finite element analysis and fatigue analysis of carbon/glass hybrid fiber wound natural gas cylinders.

3. Creep constitutive equation and micro damage mechanism analysis of SA508-Ⅲ steel (nuclear power station material) at phase transition temperature.
