The body of the new-type dry gas holder is a large stiffened cylindrical shell. Limited by the test site and economic conditions, the buckling characteristics of such holders are generally studied through scale model experiments. Taking the longitudinal-ring rectangular stiffened cylindrical shell as the research object, the generalized similitude condition and scaling principle formula of the structure are derived innovatively based on Donnell’s assumption and the energy method. By means of displacement loading and node coordinates updating, dimple imperfections are introduced into the ideal structure of the stiffened cylindrical shell, and then, the complete similitude and partial similitude analysis of axial compression nonlinear buckling for imperfect structures are carried out. The analysis results show that the complete similitude analysis of stiffened cylindrical shell axial-compression nonlinear buckling can be realized accurately; the partial similitude model for stiffened cylindrical shell axial-compression nonlinear buckling can better predict the buckling characteristics of its prototype structures, and the closer the Poisson’s ratio between the model and the prototype materials is, the more accurate the prediction results are. Meanwhile, the generalized similitude condition and scaling principle formula derived based on the energy method can provide useful reference for the model design and experimental verification of the axial compression buckling of the stiffened cylindrical shell with local geometric imperfections.

Abstract This paper presents an investigation of the strength of a stiffened cylindrical shell under the action of uniform axial compression. It is assumed that the cylindrical structure is a very thin tube of circular cross section; its reinforcements consist essentially of a great number of uniform longitudinal stiffeners and a great number of uniform transverse rings. It is often desirable to know the critical value of the compressive load for the buckling of such a structure.

Abstract The purpose of this paper is to show that Rayleigh’s energy method, used by Timoshenko for the determination of critical loads in plates and shells, is capable of an important generalization. The work involved is a direct continuation of the energy method of Timoshenko and is based on the principle of virtual work. According to this principle the variation of the work of the outer forces together with the variation of the kinetic energy is equal to the variation of the elastic energy stored up in the body. The author develops a series of formulas, by means of which the stability of a cylindrical shell under various conditions of stress may be determined. The practical applications of these formulas, requiring only a fundamental knowledge of the mathematics of engineering, are illustrated by suitable examples.

The Bodies’ Poetry: Eva Runefelt, Eva Ström and Swedish Poetry in the Late 1970’s In the mid 1970’s a new type of poetry, associated with the body, emerged in Sweden. Especially young women writers appeared to take Swedish poetry in new aesthetic directions, exploring questions regarding experience and language. This article focuses on two prominent writers, Eva Runefelt and Eva Ström, and discusses how their different types of poetry can be said to be a bodies’ poetry, and how it was discussed in contemporary literary critique. It also reflects on why this strand of poetry has been granted such a peripheral place in literary history.

Polylactic acid (PLA) surgical sutures are a new type of absorbable sutures that can be degraded and absorbed in the body. However, there is high hydrophobicity for the surface of PLA sutures, which leads to poor biocompatibility and cellular affinity. In order to increase the hydrophilicity, the PLA sutures were etched by lipase firstly, and then grafted with chitosan. The results indicate that the optimal conditions of treating PLA sutures by lipase were as follows: 45℃ reaction temperature, 4.5 g/L concentration of lipase and 8 h reaction time. The sutures were etched by lipase and then formed some grooves and a number of hydroxyl (-OH) bonds, which led to increased surface area and hydrophilicity, but a drop in mass and strength. The optimal conditions of grafting chitosan onto PLA sutures were as follows: 4 h reaction time and 3 g/L concentration of chitosan. The chitosan grafted and loaded on the surface of PLA sutures, and in some areas of the sutures the chitosan reunited, which led to a rough surface and large friction coefficient. Finally, the hydrophilicity of the PLA sutures, treated by lipase and then grafted with chitosan, was greatly improved.
