Abstract: Theoretical developments on limit pressures of shells are cited and briefly discussed. Calculated limit pressure from several of the theoretical analyses are compared with numerous tests on radial ...

Abstract: Thermal buckling and postbuckling behavior of cylindrical liners for canned electric motors have been investigated. It is shown that if an initial circumferential eccentricity exists, a short ...

Abstract: An estimate of the limit pressure for cylindrical nozzles in cylindrical shells is derived from an upper bound analysis based on an assumed velocity distribution. The analysis is restricted to ...
