309 An Experimental Examination on Strength Evaluation for the Very Thin Plates of Metallic Materials : Effect of the Excess Cyclic Pressures and Fatigue Strength of the Bursting Rupture Discs

Abstract

In this paper, safety bursting rupture discs are good examples for the very thin plates of metallic materials. Test specimen was made from actual bursting rupture discs. Experiments were conducted with specimen by six materials (aluminum, copper, nickel, monel, inconel, stainless steel). In these results, fatigue life and relations the burst pressure or excess cyclic pressure on the number of cyclic pressure were examined experimentally.
