Short summaries are given of stress analysis studies of perforated flat plates, a hemispherical shell with a radially attached nozzle, and ANSI Standard B16.5 flanged piping joints. Summary descriptions are also given on work currently in progress, including analyses of isolated and closely-spaced nozzles in cylindrical pressure vessels and the development and validation of computer programs with which to conduct these studies. A summary report is given on ASME and PVRC committee work and the current status of various code rule revisions that are based at least in part on work conducted under the ORNL Design Criteria Program.
