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 Dynamic Stability of Suddenly Loaded Structures

Download or read book Dynamic Stability of Suddenly Loaded Structures written by George J. Simitses and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dynamic instability or dynamic buckling as applied to structures is a term that has been used to describe many classes of problems and many physical phenomena. It is not surprising, then, that the term finds several uses and interpretations among structural mechanicians. Problems of parametric resonance, follower-force, whirling of rotating shafts, fluid-solid interaction, general response of structures to dynamic loads, and several others are all classified under dynamic instability. Many analytical and experimental studies of such problems can be found in several books as either specialized topics or the main theme. Two such classes, parametric resonance and stability of nonconservative systems under static loads (follower-force problems), form the main theme of two books by V. V. Bolotin, which have been translated from Russian. Moreover, treatment of aero elastic instabilities can be found in several textbooks. Finally, analytical and experimental studies of structural elements and systems subjected to intense loads (of very short duration) are the focus of the recent monograph by Lindberg and Florence. The first chapter attempts to classify the various "dynamic instability" phenomena by taking into consideration the nature of the cause, the character of the response, and the history of the problem. Moreover, the various concepts and methodologies as developed and used by the various investigators for estimating critical conditions for suddenly loaded elastic systems are fully described. Chapter 2 demonstrates the concepts and criteria for dynamic stability through simple mechanical models with one and two degrees of freedom.

Book Dynamic Stability of Structures

Download or read book Dynamic Stability of Structures written by George J. Simitses and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report deals primarily with extension of the energy-based concepts of dynamic stability, developed earlier for finite-degree-of-freedom systems, to continuous systems. Moreover, the related criteria for dynamic stability are demonstrated through several structural configurations, such as eccentrically loaded simple two-bar frames, geometrically imperfect, thin, cylindrical shells (of stiffened and unstiffened construction) and subjected to uniform axial compression and lateral pressure, and a pinnted, half-sine, shallow arch loaded transversely. All of these systems are subject to violent buckling under static application of the loads. Moreover, the developed concepts are extended, so as to apply to structural systems, which are either subject to smooth buckling or are not subject to buckling at all under static loading.

Book Thermo Dynamics of Plates and Shells

Download or read book Thermo Dynamics of Plates and Shells written by Jan Awrejcewicz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-02-15 with total page 785 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph is devoted to nonlinear dynamics of thin plates and shells with thermosensitive excitation. Because of the variety of sizes and types of mathematical models in current use, there is no prospect of solving them analytically. However, the book emphasizes a rigorous mathematical treatment of the obtained differential equations, since it helps efficiently in further developing of various suitable numerical algorithms to solve the stated problems.

Book The Stability Under Axial Compression and Lateral Pressure of Circular cylindrical Shells with a Soft Elastic Core

Download or read book The Stability Under Axial Compression and Lateral Pressure of Circular cylindrical Shells with a Soft Elastic Core written by Paul Seide and published by . This book was released on 1961 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stability under axial compression and lateral pressure of a finite circular-cylindrical shell with an elastic core is treated by means of Donnell's equations. The stability criterion is investigated in detail for the general cylinder under axial compression or lateral pressure and for a particular cylinder under combined loading. Comparisons are made with available experimental data. (Author).

Book Dynamic Stability of Cylindrical Shells Under Step Loading

Download or read book Dynamic Stability of Cylindrical Shells Under Step Loading written by Yukio Stephen Tamura and published by . This book was released on 1973 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study has been made to determine the dynamic stability of an imperfect circular cylindrical shell subject to a step loading in the axial direction. In the analysis, the radial displacement of the shell is approximated by a finite degree of freedom system. To assure that the created model is proper, its static buckling behavior was studied. It was found that the model gives the proper imperfection sensitivity behavior. (Modified author abstract).

Book Convex Models of Uncertainty in Applied Mechanics

Download or read book Convex Models of Uncertainty in Applied Mechanics written by Y. Ben-Haim and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recognition of the need to introduce the ideas of uncertainty in a wide variety of scientific fields today reflects in part some of the profound changes in science and engineering over the last decades. Nobody questions the ever-present need for a solid foundation in applied mechanics. Neither does anyone question nowadays the fundamental necessity to recognize that uncertainty exists, to learn to evaluate it rationally, and to incorporate it into design.This volume provides a timely and stimulating overview of the analysis of uncertainty in applied mechanics. It is not just one more rendition of the traditional treatment of the subject, nor is it intended to supplement existing structural engineering books. Its aim is to fill a gap in the existing professional literature by concentrating on the non-probabilistic model of uncertainty. It provides an alternative avenue for the analysis of uncertainty when only a limited amount of information is available. The first chapter briefly reviews probabilistic methods and discusses the sensitivity of the probability of failure to uncertain knowledge of the system. Chapter two discusses the mathematical background of convex modelling. In the remainder of the book, convex modelling is applied to various linear and nonlinear problems. Uncertain phenomena are represented throughout the book by convex sets, and this approach is referred to as convex modelling.This book is intended to inspire researchers in their goal towards further growth and development in this field.
