The problem undertaken in this paper is the investigation of the stresses generated in circular piping elbows of variable thickness, under the influence of uniform internal pressure. It is observed now that the material region and the imposed loading conform to the same axial symmetry. This fact strongly suggests the employment of toroidal coordinates and the Boussinesq-Papkovitch-Neuber (BPN) potential function approach towards obtaining the solution to the above posed problem. The results obtained by this BPN approach are compared with the numerical solution generated by a boundary integral equation approach. The comparison yields a good agreement.
