Membrane Analysis of Composite Reinforced Composite Spherical Shells
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1992)This paper presents a stress analysis of composite reinforced spherical shells with closed apex. The shell structure may be composed of an isotropic metal layer and a unidirectional composite ... -
Stress Analysis of Pressure Vessel With Wound-Flat Steel Ribbons
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1992)Pressure vessels with wound-flat steel ribbons, also called ribbon-wound vessels, have excellent engineering and economic advantages and are widely used in the People’s Republic of China. A brief ... -
Interaction in Primary-Secondary Systems
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1992)Primary-secondary systems, consisting of a primary subsystem supporting a relatively light secondary subsystem, are characterized by special dynamic characteristics. One important characteristic is ... -
Seismic Response of Unanchored Fluid-Filled Tanks Using Finite Elements
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1992)A finite element model is presented for the seismic response of liquid-filled tanks. This type of analysis is complicated for unanchored tanks, because the bases of these tanks separate from ... -
A Method for Suppression of Pressure Pulses in Fluid-Filled Piping—Part I: Theoretical Analysis
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1992)A simple, nondestructive method to suppress pressure pulses in fluid-filled piping is theoretically analyzed, and the result provides the basis needed for design and evaluation of a pressure-pulse ... -
Methods Used for Calculating Seismic Response of Multiply Supported Piping Systems
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1992)The paper describes the response spectrum methods which are being used currently in the industry for the calculation of seismic design response of piping systems supported at several points of ... -
Transformation Plasticity and Residual Stresses in Single-Pass Repair Welds
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1992)Prediction of the residual stresses caused by welding is important when post-weld stress relief is not feasible. Phase changes and transformation plasticity have a significant effect on the ... -
Study of Integration Strategy for Thermal-Elastic-Plastic Models
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1992)The accuracy of a new integration algorithm is examined for a von Mises-type model of thermal-elastic-plasticity with nonlinear, mixed isotropic-kinematic hardening. The algorithm is founded on ... -
Effectiveness of Wear Plate at the Saddle Support
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1992)A theory is presented to analyze the effectiveness of incorporating a wear plate at the saddle support of a cylindrical pressure vessel. The wear plate can be either welded to the vessel or ... -
An Evaluation of Approximate Pipe Bend Equations
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1992)The findings from approximate equations for the elastic analysis of elliptical pipe bends under in-plane bending or pressurization are tested against an exact thin shell analysis. Although stresses ... -
Experiments on Tube/Support Interaction With Feedback-Controlled Instability
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1992)Due to tube-support gaps in heat-exchangers, low-frequency modes may develop and become unstable at comparatively low flow velocities. This kind of linear fluidelastic instability results in a ... -
Weight Loss Correlation for Sheet Gasket Materials
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1992)Elevated temperature aged tests were performed on two fiber-reinforced sheet gasket materials with acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber (NBR) binder; a compressed asbestos and a compressed aramid. Weight ... -
Tube-Tubesheet Joint: A Proposed Equation for the Equivalent Sleeve Diameter Used in the Single-Tube Model
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1992)The tube-to-tubesheet joint analysis can be greatly simplified by considering a single tube surrounded by an annular sleeve representing the tubesheet. One of the problems is how to choose the ... -
Limit Loads of Mechanical Components and Structures Using the GLOSS R-Node Method
