Solutions are presented to the first of three benchmark problems that the Pressure Vessel Research Committee (PVRC) included in an international effort to develop comparative bases for various available high-temperature structural analysis methods. This first problem is referred to as the Oak Ridge Pipe Ratchetting Experiment and involves a pipe segment that undergoes repeated thermal transients that are separated by hold periods at an elevated temperature. The other two problems selected by the PVRC are discussed in the next three papers in this publication. A working group within the PVRC Subcommittee on Elevated Temperature Design developed a program plan and the solutions were Elevated Temperature Design developed a program plan and the solutions were solicited from organizations in various countries working in the elevated temperature design area. This paper summarizes the contributed solutions and comments on the comparisons. Both detailed inelastic structural analyses and simplified inelastic analyses were performed. Comparisons with experimental results are also included.
