Book Thermal Buckling Analysis for Stiffened Orthotropic Cylindrical Shells

Download or read book Thermal Buckling Analysis for Stiffened Orthotropic Cylindrical Shells written by L. K. Chang and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A theory for thermal buckling of an orthotropic, multilayered, stiffened cylindrical shell is presented. The theory includes the effects of eccentricity of layers and stiffening, and deformations prior to buckling. It is sufficiently general to account for discrete rings and averaged properties of longitudinal stiffening, as well as arbitrary temperature distributions through the thickness of the shell and depth of the stiffeners. Two computer programs are described corresponding to solutions for buckling obtained by using finite differences and determinant plotting or modal iteration. Computed results for thermal buckling of unstiffened and ring-stiffened shells are presented and are in reasonable agreement with published results. The interaction of thermal loading and axial compression in two large diameter stiffened shells representative of a launch vehicle interstage and a preliminary supersonic transport fuselage design is investigated. Results indicate that budding can occur in both structures at a realistic temperature under thermal loading alone.

Book Buckling of Structures

Download or read book Buckling of Structures written by I. Elishakoff and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of papers, written by friends and colleagues of Josef Singer, presents a comprehensive and timely review of the theoretical mechanics of thin shell-structures. Topics of great current interest such as the buckling of composite plates and shells, the plastic buckling of thin-walled structures and the optimum design of buckling sensitive curved composite panels are examined by experts, using a great diversity of approaches, whereby theoretical predictions are compared with experimental results whenever possible.Other topics reviewed include the buckling and post-buckling behaviour of imperfect shells under different external static or dynamic loads and a variety of boundary conditions. Papers dealing with the vibration and the dynamic response of thin elastic bodies are also presented.A strong emphasis is made on the practical applications aspect in the theories presented. Thus engineers, research workers and students who are involved with the design and analysis of shell structures made of different materials, and subjected to various static and dynamic loads will find this volume an invaluable source of reference.

Book Buckling Analysis of Ring Stiffened Oval Orthotropic Cylindrical Shells

Download or read book Buckling Analysis of Ring Stiffened Oval Orthotropic Cylindrical Shells written by William L. Brodsky and published by . This book was released on 1973 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An energy principle is employed to derive the equations governing the stability of a simply-supported, eccentrically ring-stiffened, oval, orthotropic cylindrical shell. The kinematic equations are those of Love-type shell theory and the effect of the reinforcing rings is accounted for by a distributed stiffness approach. The cylinder is subjected to a combination of uniform lateral and axial pressures. It is determined that the domain of stability of a stiffened cylinder is bounded by two separate solutions denoted as 'long' and 'short' axial wavelength solutions, the extent of the short wavelength solution being dependent upon the degree of stiffening afforded by the rings.

Book Elastic Stability of Circular Cylindrical Shells

Download or read book Elastic Stability of Circular Cylindrical Shells written by N. Yamaki and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1984-02-01 with total page 573 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The object of this book is to clarify the whole aspect of the basic problems concerning the elastic stability of of circular cylindrical shells under typical loading conditions. The book deals with buckling, postbuckling and initial postbuckling problems under one of the three fundamental loads, that is, torsion, pressure and compression. The emphases are placed on the accurate analysis and comprehensive numeral results for the buckling problem, experimental verification of the theoretical analysis for the postbuckling problem and clarification of the range of applicability of the perturbation method for the analysis of initial postbuckling behaviors and imperfection sensitivity. The problems under typical combined loads as well as the influence of the contained liquid are also clarified.

Book The Buckling Analysis of Imperfection Sensitive Shell Structures

Download or read book The Buckling Analysis of Imperfection Sensitive Shell Structures written by Johann Arbocz and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This report describes several types of analyses used to predict the buckling behavior of imperfect shell structures. These analyses are used to study one well characterized stringer-stiffened cylindrical shell. The ability of each analysis to predict the actual experimental buckling load is examined. In addition, the information obtained from each analysis is used when proceeding to a higher level of analysis complexity. Based upon this study, a procedure for calculating a "knockdown" factor is proposed, to replace the traditional empirical knockdown factor."

Book Computerized buckling analysis of shells

Download or read book Computerized buckling analysis of shells written by D. Bushnell and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1985-09-30 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the work performed by Lockheed Palo Alto Research Labora tory, Palo Alto, California 94304. The work was sponsored by Air Force Office of Scientific Research, Bolling AFB, Washington, D. C. under Grant F49620-77-C-0l22 and by the Flight Dynamics Laboratory, Air Force Wright Aeronautical Laboratories, Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio under Contract F3361S-76-C-31OS. The work was completed under Task 2307Nl, "Basic Research in Behavior of Metallic and Composite Components of Airframe Structures". The work was admini stered by Lt. Col. J. D. Morgan (AFOSR) and Dr. N. S. Khot (AFWAL/FIBRA). The contract work was performed between October 1977 and December 1980. The technical report was released by the Author in December 1981. Preface Many structures are assembled from parts which are thin. For example, a stiffened plate or cylindrical panel is composed of a sheet the thickness of which is small com pared to its length, breadth, and stiffener- spacing, and stiffeners the thickness of which is small compared to their _ heights and lengths. These assembled structures, loaded in compression, can buckle overall, that is sheet and stiffeners can collapse together in a general instability mode; the sheet can buckle locally between stiffeners; the stiffeners can cripple; and a variety of complex buckling interactions can occur involving local and overall deformations of both sheet and stiffeners. More complex, built-up structures can buckle in more complex and subtle ways.

Book Buckling and Failure of Compression Loaded Composite Cylindrical Shells with Geometric and Material Imperfections

Download or read book Buckling and Failure of Compression Loaded Composite Cylindrical Shells with Geometric and Material Imperfections written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-05-29 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The results of an experimental and numerical study of the effects of initial imperfections on the buckling response and failure of unstiffened thin-walled compression-loaded graphite-epoxy cylindrical shells are presented. The shells considered in the study have six different orthotropic or quasi-isotropic shell-wall laminates and two different shell-radius-to-thickness ratios. The numerical results include the effects of geometric shell-wall mid-surface imperfections, shell-wall thickness variations, local shell-wall ply-gaps associated with the fabrication process, shell-end geometric imperfections, nonuniform end loads, and the effects of elastic boundary conditions. Selected cylinder parameter uncertainties were also considered. Results that illustrate the effects of imperfections and uncertainties on the nonlinear response characteristics, buckling loads and failure the shells are presented. In addition, a common failure analysis is used to predict material failures in the shells.Hilburger, Mark W. and Starnes, James H., Jr.Langley Research CenterBUCKLING; DEFECTS; COMPOSITE MATERIALS; FAILURE ANALYSIS; CYLINDRICAL SHELLS; ISOTROPY; SHELLS (STRUCTURAL FORMS); BOUNDARY CONDITIONS; LOADS (FORCES)
