Résumé

This book is dedicated to the behaviour of ductile materials at cryogenic temperatures, structural stability issues and reliability oriented parametric optimisation of compensation systems containing the corrugated bellows. The problems of local and global stability of systems containing bellows, coupling between the low-cycle fatigue and stability as well as evolution of plastic strain fields, micro-damage and strain induced phase transformation in the corrugated shells at cryogenic temperatures are presented. The relevant applications in the particle accelerators and cryogenic transfer lines are shown. Extract from the table of contents: introduction to the compensation systems (helium cryogenics and its applications; reliability aspects of cryogenic compensation systems; bellows expansion joints for low temperature applications; materials applied at low temperatures); thermodynamics of processes occurring in metals at low temperatures (heat transport in metals at low temperatures; thermodynamic instabilities at the temperatures close to absolute zero; mechanism of inelastic deformations); properties of austenitic stainless steels at cryogenic temperatures (chemical composition and structure; martensitic transformation and magnetic permeability; mechanical properties: tensile and fatigue tests); plastic yielding and evolution of ductile damage under cryogenic conditions; strain induced martensitic transformation at low temperatures (transformation kinetics; constitutive modelling; combined model of plastic strain induced damage evolution and martensitic transformation); stability of corrugated axisymmetric shells (bellows); material and fatigue induced structural instabilities of corrugated bellows at low temperatures; reliability oriented optimum design of cryogenic compensation systems; applications: accelerators for high energy physics and cryogenics transfer lines (superconducting magnets and the relevant technology; design of compact expansion joints for beam vacuum systems; analysis of global stability of a particle accelerator; fatigue testing of corrugated bellows at cryogenic temperatures; reliability of thermal contraction compensation system of a particle accelerator).
