The strengthening of a hollow viscoelastic cylinder by elastic, helically wound, reinforcing wires is considered. The theoretical basis for stress analysis is developed, and applied to the cylinder subjected to internal pressure and additionally supported by an elastic casing on the exterior cylindrical surface. Solutions for various choices of parameters are evaluated, and the variation of the resulting stress fields is discussed. The conclusions include the importance of varying the density of the distribution of reinforcing wires for maximum effectiveness.

Abstract An experimental stress-strain analysis by means of the Moiré method was conducted in the area of the tread and belt regions of tire sections. A special loading fixture was designed to support the tire section and load it in a manner simulating service loading and allowing for Moiré measurements. The specimen was loaded by imposing a uniform fixed deflection on the tread surface and increasing the internal pressure in steps. Moiré fringe patterns were recorded and analyzed to obtain strain components at various locations of interest. Maximum strains in the range of 1–7% were determined for an effective inflation pressure of 690 kPa (100 psi). These results were in substantial agreement with results obtained by a finite element stress analysis.

Wedge-splitting test is widely used fracture mechanical test for its stability in measurement during the testing and many papers were published. However, the biaxial wedge-splitting test is relatively a new method and the numerical stress analysis of such test is necessary. Especially the investigation of the stress fields in the vicinity of the crack tip. In this contribution, influence of various biaxial stress level is discussed on values of first and second terms of William’s expansion.

Abstract This study deals with the stress analysis and the strength evaluation of a bonded shrink fitted joint of circular pipes subjected to an internal pressure and a tensile load. In the analysis, two pipes and the adhesive are replaced with finite hollow cylinders, and the stress distributions in the joint are analyzed by using the axisymmetric theory of elasticity. From the numerical calculations, the following results are obtained: (1) Both the compressive and shear stresses at the interface between the adherend and the adhesive increase as Young’s modulus of the adherend increases. (2) The stress becomes singular at the edges of the interfaces. (3) The joint strength can be evaluated using the compressive and shear stresses near the edge of the interface. In the experiments, bonded shrink fitted joints consisting of dissimilar circular pipes were manufactured, and rupture tests of the joints were carried out by applying an internal pressure, and a tensile load to the joints. From the results, the joint strength of the bonded shrink fitted joint was found to be greater than that of the shrink fitted joint. Furthermore, the numerical results are in fairly good agreement with the experimental ones.

Elastic stress analysis of a right angle tee branch pipe connection of two pipes of identical diameter and thickness connected through 45-deg chamfer corner sections is developed for internal pressure loading. Stresses in the crotch portion of the vessel are determined. These results are presented in the form of a table of factors useful for rapid calculation of approximate values of the peak stresses. The existence of a structurally optimum size of chamfer is demonstrated.

Stainless steel fittings such as elbows, tees, nipples and so on have been widely used in mechanical structures and chemical plants, it is well known that the leakage in the fittings used sealing tapes is less than that without the sealing tapes. In a practical design, it is necessary to examine the stress states and the leakage in the fittings under internal pressure and external loads such as tensile loads, bending moments and so on. This paper deals with the FEM stress analysis of the fittings subjected to internal pressure. In the FEM calculations, the engaged screw threads are taken into consideration as helical threads in the three-dimension. The leakage tests for the fittings under internal pressure were also conducted by using liquid (oil). Using the results of the leakage tests and the calculated stress states in the fittings, the sealing performance of the fittings under internal pressure was evaluated and the effect of the tightening torque was clarified on the sealing performance. In addition, the numerical results were compared with the experimental results. As the result, the effects of the sealing tapes on the contact stress distributions were also clarified.
