A solution for the stresses in a rib-stiffened cylindrical shell with a reinforced circular penetration under hydrostatic pressure valid for a penetration radius to shell radius ratio less than or equal to 1/3 is presented. Numerical results for the unstiffened as well as the stiffened case are compared graphically with experimental data available from certain photoelastic model tests.

Based on the Flügge theory and orthotropic theory, the acoustic vibration coupling model of ring-stiffened cylindrical shell is established by using the wave propagation method and virtual source method. And the effects of water immersion on both sides, free surface, and hydrostatic pressure on the cylindrical shell are considered in the coupling model. Muller three-point iterative method is used to solve the coupling frequency. The calculation results of degradation theory are compared with COMSOL’s calculation results and experimental results, respectively, which verifies the reliability of the theoretical method. Finally, the influence of fluid load, ring rib parameters, boundary conditions, hydrostatic pressure, and free surface on the coupled vibration of ring-stiffened cylindrical shell is analyzed by an example.

AbstractThis paper studies the buckling analysis for a ring-stiffened cylindrical shell consisted of functionally graded material (FGM) subjected to hydrostatic pressure and thermal loads. Material properties of the ring-stiffened FGM cylindrical shell are assumed to be temperature-dependent, and vary smoothly through the thickness direction of the structure according to a volume exponent. Based on the Donnell assumptions, buckling loads of the ring-stiffened FGM cylindrical shell are presented by utilizing the Galerkin method. Numerical results reveal that thermal loads, volume exponent and geometric parameters have significant effects on the buckling behavior of the ring-stiffened cylindrical shell.

The elastoplastic instability of the symmetrical double-arc ring-stiffened cylindrical shell was analyzed. The critical pressure was obtained for small deflection elastoplastic buckling of the cylindrical shell under hydrostatic pressure. The critical pressure for large deflection buckling of the cylindrical shell with initial geometric imperfections was determined under hydrostatic pressure by using nonlinear large deformation theory. The effects of hoop equivalent wave number, initial geometric imperfection and the central angle of circular arc on buckling mode and critical pressure of double-arc ring-stiffened cylindrical shell were analyzed. The results showed that the hoop equivalent wave number of arc cylindrical shell had an main effect on the critical pressure of the structure, designed equivalent hoop wave number of double-arc cylindrical shell should not be approach to the hoop wave number corresponding to minimum critical pressure, and the central angle of circular arc had less effect on critical pressure of the structure.

The diffusion and the shell progressive models of deactivation caused by irreversible chemisorption of a catalytic poison are presented for a single catalyst pellet. The method for solution of the model equations is proposed. The numerical results are compared with experimental data obtained by measuring concentration and temperature changes due to thiophene poisoning in benzene hydrogenation over a nickel-alumina catalyst.

The bending by uniform lateral loading, buckling by two-dimensional hydrostatic pressure, and the flexural vibrations of simply supported polygonal plates are investigated. The method of meeting the boundary conditions at discrete points, together with the Marcus membrane analog [1], is found to be very advantageous. Numerical examples include the calculation of the deflections and moments, and buckling loads of triangular square, and hexagonal plates. A special technique is then given, whereby the boundary conditions are exactly satisfied along one edge, and an example of the buckling of an isosceles, right-angled triangle plate is analyzed. Finally, the frequency equation for the flexural vibrations of simply supported polygonal plates is shown to be the same as that for buckling under hydrostatic pressure, and numerical results can be written by analogy. All numerical results agree well with the exact solutions, where the latter are known.
