Fatigue and Leakage Data for Cast Iron Pipes from Laboratory Experiments

Edward John's research dataset contains fatigue and leakage data from destructive laboratory experiments on grey cast iron pipes. The data, last updated in May 2026, explores the impact of corrosion pit geometry and multiaxial stress on fatigue strength and leakage behavior. It includes applied stress amplitude, cycles to leakage, and leak-to-burst cycles for each test.

Use Cases

• Predicting pipe failure cycles based on applied stress amplitude and pit geometry mentioned in the description
• Modeling the relationship between corrosion pit type and leakage behavior as described in the experiments
• Analyzing the transition from leak to burst using the recorded leak-to-burst cycles
• Comparing fatigue strength between pipes with rounded pits and high-aspect ratio pits as studied in the research

Strengths

• Data is derived from controlled destructive laboratory experiments, as explicitly stated in the description
• Includes specific measured variables: applied stress amplitude, cycles to leakage, and leak-to-burst cycles
• Published under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license for reuse
• Dataset size is precisely known (1021.4 KB)

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• The dataset is small in scale (1021.4 KB), indicating limited scope
