Coupled Structural/Thermal Analysis of Cylindrical Part of Multilayered Composite Vessel

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper focuses on the coupled structural/thermal response of a cylindrical part of multi-layered composite vessel. Uniform and parabolic temperature distributions are chosen for the structural loads. In this work, an analytical model is proposed in which the laminate composite is assumed to be an anisotropic purely elastic material. Assuming that the interface between the core and skin are perfectly bound, continuity conditions for the displacement and stress, the suggested analytical model provides an exact solution for stresses and strains on the cylindrical section of the vessel solution submitted hygrothermal loading coupled with internal pressure with end effect.
