Abstract: A technique is presented for the analysis of deflection and stresses in helical compression or tension springs of rectangular cross-section. The technique consists in analyzing the deflection and ...

Abstract: Using solutions obtained by separation of variables, the set of singular solutions of the shallow cylindrical shell equation is completed by finding a particular integral of a second-order ...

Abstract: This paper develops a theoretical tool to predict rigorously the different types of contact between a cylindrical shell and a continuous rigid support for the complete range of pressure, vessel, ...

Abstract: A technique is presented for the analysis of deflection and stresses in helical compression or tension springs of rectangular cross-section. The technique consists in analysing a cylinder cut ...

Abstract: A prosthesis for a cruciate ligament of the knee involves the problem of implanting a short and small spring for which the load-deformation response cannot be duplicated by any single man-made ...
