A pressure vessel support bracket is to be designed so that itcan withstand a tensile loading cycle of 0-500 MN/m2 once every dayfor 25 years. Which of the following steels would have the greatertolerance to intrinsic defects in this application: (i) a maragingsteel (Ke-82 MNm-, C= 0.15 × 10-11, m-41), or (ii) amedium-strength steel (Kic 50 MN m1, C0.24x 10-\", m 3.3)? For theloading situation a geometry factor of 1.12 may be assumed.
