ATLAS+ European Project - Prediction of Large Ductile Tearing in Austenitic Piping

In the frame of the European ATLAS+ project it was decided to evaluate if a continuum damage model can simulate a four-points bending test on an austenitic pipe (316L type) with an aged welded joint. To do so, different approaches were used such as GTN model or G_FR approach. This paper present the work performed by the different partners.
