The Finite Deformation Analysis of a Circular Membrane with an Embedded Rigid Inclusion under Uniform Pressure

Abstract:

A new constitutive model which is modified from Gao’s constitutive model has been introduced to analyze the finite deformation of a circular membrane with an embedded rigid inclusion under uniform pressure. Based on the basic controlling equations, the constitutive parameters and the dimension of the rigid inclusion have been discussed to demonstrate the influences on the membrane stresses.
