Orthotropic Shells

Solutions for an orthotropic cylindrical shell which is subjected to a longitudinal line load along a generator are presented for Flu¨gge and Donnell type orthotropic shell equations. Experimental data of 2 orthotropic shells is presented and compared with the theoretical predictions. The results from the Flu¨gge-type equations agree well with the experimental data for all shells. The solutions based on Donnell-type equations agree well only in case of short shells.

Collapse of arteries subjected to a band of hydrostatic pressure of finite length is analyzed. The vessel is treated as a long, thin, linearly elastic, orthotropic cylindrical shell, homogeneous in composition, and with negligible radial stresses. Blood in the vessel is treated as a Newtonian fluid and the Reynolds number is of order 1. Results are obtained for effects of the following factors on arterial collapse: intraluminal pressure, length of the pressure band, elastic properties of the vessel, initial stress both longitudinally and circumferentially, blood flow Reynolds number, compressibility, and wall thickness to radius ratio. It is found that the predominant parameter influencing vessel collapse for the intermediate range of vessel size and blood flow Reynolds numbers studied is the preconstricted intraluminal pressure. For pressure bands less than about 10 vessel radii the collapse pressure increases sharply with increasing intraluminal pressure. Initial axial prestress is found to be highly stabilizing for small band lengths. The effects of fluid flow are found to be small for pressure bands of less than 100 vessel radii. No dramatic orthotropic vessel behavior is apparent. The analysis shows that any reduction in intraluminal pressure, such as that produced by an upstream obstruction, will significantly lower the required collapse pressure. Medical implications of this analysis to Legg-Perthes disease are discussed.

Abstract The problem of a line load along a segment of a generator of a simply supported circular cylindrical shell is treated using shallow cylindrical shell equations which include the effect of transverse-shear deformation. The line load is first treated as a sinusoidally-varying edge load over the length of the shell, with boundary conditions prescribed along the loaded generator such that the continuity of the shell is maintained. The solution for the problem of a uniform line load over a segment of a generator is obtained from the preceding solution, using the principle of superposition. By means of a numerical example it is shown that the results predicted by the Donnell equations for the stresses are in excellent agreement with those obtained from the system of equations employed here. However, the radial displacement predicted by the Donnell equations is in error by as much as 20 per cent in the range of shell geometry considered.

The effect of a rigid circular inclusion on stresses in a cylindrical shell subjected to internal pressure has been studied. The two linear shallow shell equations governing the behavior of a cylindrical shell are converted into a single differential equation involving a curvature parameter and a potential function in nondimensionalized form. The solution in terms of Hankel functions is used to find membrane and bending stressses. Boundary conditions at the inclusion shell junction are expressed in a simple form involving the in-plane strains and change of curvature. Good agreement has been obtained for the limiting case of a flat plate. The shell results are plotted in nondimensional form for ready use.
