BENDING OF A THIN CYLINDRICAL SHELL SUBJECTED TO A LINE LOAD AROUND A CIRCUMFERENCE

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4183340
An analysis is developed for bending of a thin circular cylindrical shell under a varying line load distributed around the circumference at the center section. The problem is solved by reducing the eighth order differential equation of thin shell theory to two approximate fourth order equations. Reflections, bending stresses, and membrane stresses are evaluated. Both simply supported and clamped ends are considered. (auth)
