Effects of Local Loadings on Pressurized Circular Cylindrical Shells: An Analysis of Stresses and Deflexions for Four Types of Loading

Abstract

An analysis is carried out to determine the deflexions and stresses in the region of a highly localized loaded area of a circular cylindrical shell initially subjected to internal pressure. Four types of loading are considered: uniformly distributed radial loading, linearly distributed longitudinal bending moment, linearly distributed circumferential bending moment, and uniformly distributed tangential loading. There are five basic parameters defining the structure and loading. Results are presented in the form of diagrams for the first three cases and a table for the last.
