A PROGRAM TO PERFORM STRESS ANALYSIS OF SHELLS OF REVOLUTION

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4144852

SOR-II, a FORTRAN program that solves for the forces, deflections, stresses, and strains in thin shells of revolution with variable thicknesses andd elastic moduli, is described. The axisymmetric loadings considered include arbitrary distributions of normal, tangential, and moment surface loadings, as well as edge forces and deflections. The effects of temperature variations in the meriodional andd thickness directions as well as centrifugal loading due to rotation about the axis and vibration are included. The program will solve andd join together up to 20 shells. The additional effects of misalignment, line loads, and elastic supports at the shell inter-sections are considered. The shell equations are numerically integrated using a generalized Adams-Moulton method. (auth)
