Reference - Thin Plate and Shells - Theory, Analysis and Application//Eduard Vantsel/Theodor Krauthammer

Given
h= 1.5 in Thickness of shell (corroded)
E= 11,000,000 psi Modulus of Elasticity
p= 150 psig Design Pressure
R= 121.27 in Mean Radius
v= 0.30 possion ratio

bi = 2.00 in Base width of ring

hi = 1.50 in Height of ring
Ai = 3 in2
Calculate the geometric parameter of dimension [length]*1 for assymetrically loaded
cylindrical shell
β = 0.09530558324093 Parameter
D = 3,399,725.3 Parameter

The free body of the ring and adjacent parts of the cylinder wall. The contact forces and moments between
the cylinder and ring are the shear forces Q o and the bending moment Mo.

At ring section, Check the radial displacement of ring due to shear load Q o
wr = (2*Qo*R)*R/(Ai*E)
= - 0.11364046

CALCULATE THE SHEAR FORCES, MOMENT AND MEMBRANCE FORCE

Calculate the bending moment M o and Qo at shell at ring intersection
Mo = 610.69806537 Lb-in/in
Qo = -127.50 Lb/in

The circumferential membrane force ,N 2

N2 = 18,190.50 Lbf/in

and longitudinal membrane force, N1 from N 2

N`1 = (- N2*R/E*h*w)/v
= 3.9216 Lbf/in

The circumferential bending Moment, M 2

M2 = 183.209 Lb-in/in

then Circumferential bending moment M 1 = M2/v

M1 = 610.698 Lb-in/in

CALCULATE THE STRESSES

The stress in ring as function of shear Q o
σr = -10307.95 psi

The maximum longitudinal stress in shell occurs at the ring attachment

σ1 = 7692.03 psi

Finally, The circumferential (Hoop) stress in the shell

σ2 = 12615.558 psi

CALCULATE THE RADIAL DISPLACEMENT

The displacement of shell due to pressure, Shear Q o and Moment Mo at ring section
ws = 0.01083588

The displacement/deflection of shell at ring junction

ws = -0.1136405
