A More Accurate Method for Predicting the Prestresses in a Multilayer Wrapped Cylindrical Vessel
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1991)The prestresses in the walls of multilayered weld-wrapped cylindrical pressure vessels are mainly created by the transverse shrinkage of the welded layers. Current design practices consider only ... -
Postbuckling Behavior of Unanchored Steel Tanks Under Lateral Loads
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1991)A simplified approach is described for determining the extent of plastic buckling of the tank wall near the base (elephant’s foot bulging) for ground-supported unanchored liquid storage tanks ... -
A Global Model for Flow-Induced Vibration of Tube Bundles in Cross-Flow
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1991)This paper presents an approximate model which can be used for predictive analysis of industrial tube bundles subjected to cross-flow. A tube bundle in cross-flow is locally approximated, in a ... -
Buckling of Force-Excited Liquid-Filled Shells
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1991)The matrix equation of motion for liquid-filled shells with a particular reference to the influence of ground excitation are derived through a Galerkin/finite element discretization procedure. The ... -
Two-Dimensional Crack Inclusion Interaction Effects: Analysis and Experiments
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1991)The plane interaction between a crack and a rigid elliptical inclusion is investigated. In particular, the effects of the orientation and aspect ratio of the inclusion are considered. Analytically, ... -
On the Dynamics and Stability of Cylindrical Shells Conveying Inviscid or Viscous Fluid in Internal or Annular Flow
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1991)This paper investigates theoretically for the first time the dynamical behavior and stability of a simply supported shell located coaxially in a rigid cylindrical conduit. The fluid flow is ... -
Rate Sensitivity and Short-Term Relaxation Behavior of AISI Type 304 Stainless Steel at Room Temperature and at 650°C; Influence of Prior Aging
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1991)The strain rate sensitivity and short-term relaxation behavior of Type 304 stainless steel were investigated in the uniaxial strain rate jump tests with intermittent periods of relaxation at ... -
Experimental Studies on Damping Characteristics of Bolted Joints for Plates and Shells

The Crack Arrest Capability of 9-Percent Ni Steels (ASTM 553, Type 1) LNG Storage Tanks
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1991)Safety of structures can be assured, even if cracks initiate in localized regions of abnormally low toughness, and/or abnormally high stress (LT/HS), if the materials from which they are ... -
Finite Element Analysis of Residual Stresses in Threaded End Closures
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1991)Due to the high stress concentration at the root of the first active thread in threaded end closures of high pressure vessels, yielding may occur in this region during the application of the ... -
Full-Thickness Crack Arrest Fracture Toughness of 9-Percent Ni (ASTM 553, Type 1) Steels
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1991)Measurements were made of the full-thickness crack arrest fracture toughness (FTCAT) of three 9-percent Ni steels having the range of thicknesses and Charpy V-notch toughnesses of plates now in ... -
Longitudinal Motion of a Thick Transversely Isotropic Hollow Cylinder
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1991)The propagation of a longitudinal harmonic wave in a transversely isotropic shell has been investigated in the development of ultrasonic techniques for thick hollow composite cylinders. The ... -

On Vibrations of Shells of Revolution Using Bezier Polynomials
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1991)A very computationally efficient numerical technique for the free vibration analysis of shells of revolution is presented in this study. The generic segment of the shell structure is given in ... -
Effect of Cyclic Loading on Ductile Fracture Resistance
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1991)The influence of cyclic loading on ductile fracture toughness was examined from limited experimental data available in the literature. The review indicated that, in the absence of global compressive ... -

Narrow Belt Stiffening for Reducing the Stress Concentrations in Joints Existing on Vessels, Pipings and Other Related Structures (Design Paper)
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1991)It is shown, in the light of three very different case studies, that a narrow belt stiffening when suitably attached at the geometric discontinuity of a joint existing on a vessel, tank or ... -
Analytical Solutions of Refined Plate Theories of Cross-Ply Composite Laminates
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1991)Exact solutions of rectangular laminated composite plates with different boundary conditions are studied. The Lévy-type solutions of the classical, first-order and third-order shear deformation ... -
