Abstract: Equations for strain and stress distribution in hollow rotating cylinders are developed. The deformations are considered to be of such magnitude, that the use of finite-strain theory is necessary. ...

Abstract: During bending of a slit, thin-walled circular tube two secondary effects are observed to occur simultaneously. One, the so-called Brazier effect, occurs in thin-walled tubes generally when they ...

Abstract: The present investigation is concerned with the behavior of an elastic, oblate, torquefree gyro model. The model has been devised such that it represents accurately arbitrarily large attitudes ...

Abstract: Attitude drift and attitude stability studies of torque-free gyros involve an angular momentum that is constant in magnitude and direction. The problem is to find suitable coordinates to describe ...

Abstract: The present paper establishes and interprets the global uniaxial stress-strain behavior of regularly perforated plate, throughout the elastic, partly plastic, and fully plastic regimes up to ...

Abstract: In this paper, the stepped reduction method is used to find general solutions for the nonaxisymmetric bending of arbitrary axisymmetric nonhomogeneous annular plates of variable thickness under ...

Abstract: When a pressure vessel is subjected to internal pressure and is made from a material which exhibits creep, the vessel will expand. If the internal pressure is held constant during expansion, ...

Abstract: The concepts of kinetic energy and complementary kinetic energy permit to distinguish between two different formulations of what happens to be the same quantity in Newtonian mechanics. These ...
