322: Ball Valve

Non-linear static stress analysis of a ball valve design, using non-linear surface contact and a non-linear material model. Bolt pretensions were also included in the analysis, to accurately represent the stresses in the assembly. The model passed the acceptance criteria, confirming HISC will no occur.
