Using the strain-mapping method for the Tresca yield condition, the yield surface is derived for a cylindrical shell with a wall reinforced by longitudinal ribs on one side. Results are given for the case where the axial load is zero. As a sample problem utilizing this surface and as an appropriate method for solving nonlinear equations, the solution of a cantilever shell under constant pressure is obtained.

Equations describing the stress field and velocity field occurring in a circular cylindrical shell at plastic collapse are derived corresponding to stress states lying on each face of a yield surface for a uniform shell of material obeying the Tresca yield condition. They are then applied to the case of a shell under combined axisymmetric loadings (moment, shear force, and axial force) at one end and uniform internal or external pressure on the lateral surface. For a sufficiently long shell, complete solutions are obtained for a fixed far end, and for a certain range of values of axial force and pressure, they are obtained for a free far end. All the solutions are represented by either closed form or by quadratures. It is shown that in many cases the radial velocity field is proportional to the shear force.

The theory of a previous paper [1], which was designed for plane strain of a compound cylinder, is extended to generalized plane strain, where the axial strain is a constant nonzero value for every radius and depends only on the external and internal pressures and any extraneous axial load. The method is limited to incompressible elastic material and is found to be completely solvable only if an elastic zone exists in each component. The assumed Tresca yield condition is verified in the process of obtaining the complete solution.

The yield condition for a rotationally symmetric shell may be represented as a surface in a four-dimensional stress space. The exact yield surface according to the Tresca yield condition is compared with various approximations. A new approximation is suggested which combines the advantages of mathematical simplicity and reasonable accuracy. The theory is illustrated with reference to a spherical cap under uniform pressure.

A consistent kinematic hardening theory termed complete hardening, based on a Tresca initial yield condition, has been applied to determine the general flow laws for rotationally symmetric shells. Representative “long” and “short” cylindrical shell problems with zero axial load are solved using complete hardening and a simpler but approximate kinematic hardening theory, termed direct hardening. The direct-hardening results compare favorably with the complete hardening ones.

An elastic-plastic analysis of a spherical shell loaded radially through a rigid inclusion is performed. The sphere is modeled as a shallow shell of infinite extent. The Tresca yield condition is used to derive the elastic-plastic moment-curvature relationship in a simple form. This is used to develop a computationally efficient solution method.

The determination of the inelastic response of cylindrical shells under general impulsive loads is of relevance to marine structures such as submarines, in analyzing their slamming damages. The present study is concerned with the plastic response of a simply supported cylindrical shell under a general axisymmetric impulsive load. The impulsive load is assumed to impart an axisymmetric velocity to the shell, with a Gaussian distribution along the longitudinal axis of the shell. A simplified Tresca yield condition is used. The shell response is determined for various forms of impulses ranging from a concentrated impulse to a uniform impulse over the entire length of the shell. Conclusions about the influence of geometry of the shell and the spatial distribution of impulse on the plastic behavior of cylindrical shells are presented.

An approximate model for the elastic-plastic analysis of a pipe element under combined loading is developed. The model is obtained by generalizing a limit load solution for combined pressure, bending, torsion and axial load to include strain hardening. For various combinations of loading of tubes, curvatures and twist angles are predicted and compared with experimental results and those predicted by a more rigorous analytical approach. The comparison shows that good results are obtained from the approximate model.
