Abstract
Pressure vessels are critical components in various industries, including oil and gas, petrochemical, and food processing. However, these vessels are prone to failure due to harsh operating conditions, including high pressure, temperature, and corrosive environments. Stress intensity factors are critical factors that can affect the failure of these vessels. In this article, we investigate the effect of stress intensity factors on the failure of pressure vessels through a comprehensive literature review and numerical simulations. Our study provides valuable insights into the effect of stress intensity factors on the failure of pressure vessels and highlights the importance of considering this factor in the design and operation of these vessels.
