Abstract:Limit pressures are evaluated for cylindrical perforated shells containing circular holes arranged in the various penetration patterns typically found in practice. Statically admissible discontinuous fields of stress are used to obtain rigorous lower-bound limit pressures. These solutions are shown to be quite close to the actual limit pressures based on the efficiency of the discontinuous fields of stress and a comparison with upper-bound solutions. The optimal spacing parameters are obtained over the interes… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
