"With emphasis on the requirements of the pressure vessel design codes, notably the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, this work examines the design of pressure vessel components with explanations that clearly emphasize the inherent design principles and philosophy." "Pressure Vessels: Design and Practice covers the basic theories and principles behind the stress limiting conditions in the codes. It is also a practical guide for designing pressure vessels of all types. Not just a cookbook, this volumes allows you to trace the origin of the design equations used in the pressure vessel design and construction codes offering a valuable insight into the design process."--Jacket.
