Table A-4 Link between functional requirements and failure modes<br />
Functional Requirements Failure Modes Comments<br />
Load carrying capacity Fracture Shall always be checked<br />
Global, local buckling Shall always be checked if compressive loads are present.<br />
Buckling may lead to fracture.<br />
Blast<br />
Same as fracture, caused by high rate external loads.<br />
Impact<br />
Damage from impact may effect load carrying capacity<br />
Excessive deformation,<br />
ovalisation<br />
excessive displacement<br />
Wear<br />
Only relevant if deformations effect load carrying capacity, e.g. if<br />
the structure can jump out of a mechanical joint.<br />
Wear may lead to a reduction of strength, causing fracture.<br />
Pressure containment Fracture, local fracture Shall always be checked.<br />
Global, local buckling Shall always be checked if compressive loads are present.<br />
Buckling may lead to fracture or excessive deformations.<br />
Blast<br />
Same as fracture, caused by high rate external loads.<br />
Burst<br />
Same as fracture, but combined with rapid release of fluid from a<br />
pressure vessel. Failure consequence is usually related to high<br />
safety class.<br />
Impact<br />
Damage from impact may effect load carrying capacity<br />
Excessive deformation,<br />
ovalisation<br />
Excessive displacement<br />
Only relevant if deformations effect load carrying capacity, e.g. if<br />
the structure can jump out of a mechanical joint or a seal.<br />
Leakage<br />
Related to fracture, but often just a gradual release of fluid from a<br />
pressure vessel. Fracture will cause leakage, but other minor<br />
failure mechanisms may also cause leakage. Failure consequence<br />
is often less critical and related to normal safety class, but it<br />
depends on the fluid.<br />
Wear<br />
Wear may lead to a reduction of strength, causing fracture.<br />

Resistance to the environment or chemicals is treated in this<br />
standard as a possible change to material properties that shall be<br />
considered in the evaluation of all other functional requirements.<br />
Resistance to fire is mainly treated in this standard as a possible<br />
change to material properties that shall be considered in the<br />
evaluation of all other functional requirements.<br />
Insulation can be tested and analysed the same way as for other<br />
materials. Anisotropic thermal coefficients and thermal<br />
expansions should be considered.<br />
Electrical aspects are not covered in this standard.<br />
Composites are an insulator, unless filled with conductive<br />
particles or fibres. Coating with a fluid or paint may also create<br />
some conductivity. Special electrical requirements for the<br />
application shall be considered.<br />
