Creep analysis of cylindrical shell by a finite difference method

The governing equations of the steady state creep of a two-dimensional thin shallow circular cylindrical shell are developed on the basis of Mises' criterion and the power law of creep.Stresses, membrane forces and bending moments expressed in terms of displacements are then linearized by expanding them in the neighbourhood of a certain approximate value of displacement. Substitution of these expressions into the equations of equilibrium reduces the problem into a set of simultaneous linear differential equations with respect to the small perturbation of the displacements. A method that may be interpreted as a modification of the Newton-Raphson method combined with the method of finite differences is used to solve the linear system of equations.Although calculations are made for a cylindrical panel with clamped edges subjected to normal pressure, the method is quite general and other types of shells, boundary conditions and geometries can be treated similarly.     

Influence of edge conditions on the modal characteristics of cross-ply laminated shells

The dynamic and static behavior of cross-ply laminated shells are investigated using the third-order shear deformation shell theory of Reddy. The theory is a modification of the Sanders shell theory and accounts for parabolic distribution of the transverse shear strains through the thickness of the shell and does not require shear correction coefficients. The Lévy-type exact solutions for bending, buckling and natural vibration are presented for doubly curved, cylindrical and spherical shells under various boundary conditions.     

Optimization of the crushing characteristics of triangulated aluminum beverage cans

In this study, a cylindrical shell body of the aluminum cans is triangulated and optimized for being folded down easily and safely for recycling. The triangulated cylindrical shell is constructed by a family of triangular surfaces based on one set of helical strips and circles lying on a cylindrical side surface. The intersections of helical strips and circles are used as the vertexes of the triangular surfaces. By changing the helical angle of the strips, the number of the strips, and the number of the circles, various triangulated cylindrical shells with different crushing characteristics can be developed. On the basis of the numerical simulation, the minimization problem of the crushing force of the triangulated cylindrical shells is solved using the crashworthiness maximization technique for tubular structures that combines the techniques of design of experiment, response surface approximation as well as usual mathematical programming.     

Vibration of thin cylindrical shells based on a mixed finite element formulation

A Hellinger-Reissner functional for thin circular cylindrical shells is presented. A mixed finite element formulation is developed from this functional, which is free from line integrals and relaxed continuity terms. This element is applied to the problem of vibration of rectangular cylindrical shells. Bilinear trial functions are used for all field variables. The element satisfies the compatibility and completeness requirements. The numerical results obtained in this work show that convergence is quite rapid and monotonic for a much smaller number of degrees of freedom than other finite element formulations.     

Collapse of long, noncircular, cylindrical shells under pure bending

This paper describes an extension of a method developed in a previous paper to determine the moment carrying capacity of elastoplastic noncircular cylindrical shells with infinite length by the finite element method. As a result of the shape change in the cross section of a shell during deformation, the bending moment reaches a global maximum value and then decreases as the bending curvature further increases. The shell would consequently collapse at the maximum moment. However, a bifurcation buckling may occur before the maximum moment can be developed. This bifurcation buckling could induce collapse of the shell under a moment less than the maximum. Determination of the likelihood that the bifurcation buckling would generate shell collapse may be made from the initial post-buckling behavior. An initial post-buckling analysis based on the J₂ deformation theory of plasticity has been developed in this paper. The finite element method with one spatial variable is used to locate the bifurcation point as well as to analyze the initial post-buckling behavior. Numerical examples of cylindrical shells with various cross-sectional shapes are shown. In particular, for a shell of square cross section, the moment at the bifurcation is much lower than the maximum value; however, the initial post-buckling analysis reveals that the state of equilibrium is still stable. Deep post-buckling analysis is required to determine the moment carrying capacity of a shell with such cross section.

Optimization of inelastic cylindrical shells with internal supports

A non-linear programming method is developed for optimization of inelastic cylindrical shells with internal ring supports. The shells under consideration are subjected to internal pressure loading and axial tension. The material of shells is a composite which is considered as an anisotropic inelastic material obeying the yield condition suggested by Lance and Robinson. Taking geometrical non/linearity of the structure into account optimal locations of internal ring supports are determined so that the cost function attains its minimum value. A particular problem of minimization of the mean deflection of the shell with weakened singular cross sections is treated in a greater detail.     

Determination of realistic worst imperfection for cylindrical shells using surrogate model

Thin-walled cylindrical shells subjected to axial compression are sensitive to initial geometrical imperfections. Firstly, the influence of a single dimple imperfection on the load-carrying capacity of cylindrical shells is investigated by varying the amplitudes, directions and positions of the dimple imperfection. Then a single delta function is introduced to describe the profile of the dimple imperfection in a more general form, which enables to analyze conveniently the effect of the imperfect zone area on the load-carrying capacity of cylindrical shells. Thereafter, a surrogate-based optimization framework of determining the worst realistic imperfection is proposed to study the reduction of the buckling load of cylindrical shells based on a finite number of dimple imperfections. The possible dimple imperfections may be introduced during the service of cylindrical shells. Finally the effectiveness of the present method is demonstrated by an illustrative example.     

Free vibration analysis of circular cylindrical shells

Determination of the vibrational characteristics of circular cylindrical shells often requires significant computational effort. This paper presents the results of a comprehensive, computer based, numerical investigation of the free vibration of circular cylindrical shells. An analytical procedure which accurately predicts the natural frequencies and radial mode shapes (corresponding to axial wave number and circumferential wave number both equal to one) for a wide range of circular cylindrical shells is developed. The procedure is applicable to shells either with or without a top closure. Several numerical examples are presented which illustrate application of the procedure and verify its accuracy.

A general finite element model for shells of arbitrary geometry

A finite element formulation is developed for the large displacement analysis of arbitrary shells. Formulation is based on a convected coordinate system and a tensorial approach is followed. The strain-displacement relationships used do not reflect the Kirchhoff hypothesis and Love's approximations. Isoparametric interpolation is used for the discretization of the problem, and the number of nodal points is variable. The numerical examples include the buckling analysis of cylindrical shells as well as two problems to test the convergence and accuracy of the algorithm.     

A thin cylindrical shell finite element based on a mixed formulation

A specialized functional for thin cylindrical shells derived from the Washizu-Hu variational principle using considerations of relaxed continuity requirements is presented. A mixed formulation for a cylindrical thin shell finite element is developed from this functional. The assumed fields for displacements and stress resultants are bilinear functions in the longitudinal and circunferential directions.The agreement between the present results and those obtained in previous formulations is good if the comparison is based on the precision related to the number of variables involved in the problem.     

Large deflection analysis of plates and shells by discrete energy method

The discrete energy method—a special form of finite difference energy approach—is presented as a suitable alternative to the finite element method for the large deflection elastic analysis of plates and shallow shells of constant thickness. Strain displacement relations are derived for the calculation of various linear and nonlinear element stiffness matrices for two types of elements into which the structure is discretized for considering separately energy due to extension and bending and energy due to shear and twisting. Large deflection analyses of plates with various edge and loading conditions and of a shallow cylindrical shell are carried out using the proposed method and the results compared with finite element solutions. The computational efforts required are also indicated.     

Buckling of cylindrical shells under the action of nonuniform external pressure

Over the last few decades, storage tanks have become bigger and thinner. Because of this, the buckling capacity of these cylindrical shells may well be the determining factor of shell thickness. In this paper, the critical buckling load of isotropic and orthotropic cylinders subjected to different types of wind load distributions is investigated. The prebuckling displacements are obtained by using the membrane theory of shell analysis. The principle of minimum potential energy in conjunction with Ritz's approach is used to obtain the stability matrix. The size of the stability matrix in this analysis is (81 × 81). By solving the stability matrix as an eigenvalue problem, the critical pressures are obtained as eigenvalues and the deflection shapes as eigenvectors. In the present study cylindrical shells of various dimensions, which are fixed at the base and free at the top, are investigated. The buckling load curves for isotropic and orthotropic cylinders of various dimensions are given for practical use.     

Optimal design of a cylindrical shell loaded by internal pressure

The problem of the optimal design of a noncircular cylindrical shell loaded by uniform internal pressure is presented. As an optimization criterion the minimal ratio of structure mass to medium mass is taken into account. Solution constraints are geometrical and strength conditions. Numerical analysis is realized using the finite element method. Optimal shapes of steel and aluminium shells are determined.     

Optimal design of plastic cylindrical shells of von Mises material

Optimal design of plastic circular cylindrical shells of von Mises material is studied. The optimization problem is stated as the maximization problem of the load carrying capacity for given weight of the shell. Shells with constant and piecewise-constant thickness are considered. The maximization problem is performed under the requirement that the material volume of the stepped shell is equal to the case of the reference shell of constant thickness. The material of the shell is assumed to be an ideal rigid plastic obeying von Mises yield criterion. The considered nonlinear problems are solved by using the CASes method.     

Sensitivity of buckling loads of anisotropic shells of revolution to geometric imperfections and design changes

Buckling load sensitivity calculations in the shell-of-revolution program FASOR are discussed. This development is based on Koiter's initial postbuckling theory, which has been generalized to include the effect of stiffness changes, as well as geometric imperfections. The implementation in FASOR is valid for anisotropic, as well as orthotropic, shells. Examples are presented for cylindrical panels under axial compression, complete cylindrical shells in torsion, and antisymmetric angle-ply cylindrical panels under edge shear.
