Abstract: Creep relaxation of a beam of general cross-sectional area subjected to mechanical and thermal load is obtained. Temperature is assumed to be a function of Z, the height of the beam, and the ...

Abstract: The three-dimensional theory of elasticity in curvilinear coordinates is employed to investigate the dynamic buckling of an imperfect orthotropic circular cylindrical shell under mechanical and ...

Abstract: Based on the concept of secant and tangent modulus, the nonlinear equilibrium and stability equations of thin cylindrical shells under axial compression, external pressure, or external fluid ...

Abstract: Using a high-order Reisner-Mindlin-type shear deformation theory in a power series form, the general large deformation form of the Green strain tensor for imperfect cylindrical shells is introduced. ...

Abstract: A technique is developed which can be used to distinguish the primary and secondary stresses in pressure vessels. The general definition of the two types of stresses stated by the ASME Code ...

Abstract: In this paper, the general theoretical analysis of two-dimensional steady-state thermal stresses for a hollow thick cylinder made of functionally graded material is developed. The temperature ...

Abstract: In this paper, the classic coupled thermoelasticity model of hollow and solid spheres under radial-symmetric loading condition (r,t) is considered. A full analytical method is used and an exact ...

Abstract: In this paper, the general solution of steady-state 2D nonaxisymmetric mechanical and thermal stresses and electrical and mechanical displacements of a hollow thick cylinder made of fluid-saturated ...

Abstract: In this paper, the classic coupled thermoelasticity model of hollow and solid cylinders under radial-symmetric loading condition (r,t) is considered. A full analytical method is used, and an ...
