Finite Element Analysis of Buckling of Thin Cylindrical Shell Subjected to Uniform External Pressure
One of the common failure modes of thin cylindrical shell subjected external pressure is buckling. The buckling pressure of these shell structures are dominantly affected by the geometrical imperfections present in the cylindrical shell which are very difficult to alleviate during manufacturing process. In this work, only three types of geometrical imperfection patterns are considered namely (a...
متن کاملIntegrated modeling, finite-element analysis, and engineering design for thin-shell structures using subdivision
Many engineering design applications require geometric modeling and mechanical simulation of thin flexible structures, such as those found in the automotive and aerospace industries. Traditionally, geometric modeling, mechanical simulation, and engineering design are treated as separate modules requiring different methods and representations. Due to the incompatibility of the involved represent...
متن کاملSubdivision Surfaces: a New Paradigm for Thin-shell Finite-element Analysis
We develop a new paradigm for thin-shell finite-element analysis based on the use of subdivision surfaces for: i) describing the geometry of the shell in its undeformed configuration, and ii) generating smooth interpolated displacement fields possessing bounded energy within the strict framework of the Kirchhoff-Love theory of thin shells. The particular subdivision strategy adopted here is Loo...
متن کاملIntrinsic finite element modeling of a linear membrane shell problem
A Galerkin finite element method for the membrane elasticity problem on a meshed surface is constructed by using two-dimensional elements extended into three dimensions. The membrane finite element model is established using the intrinsic approach suggested by Delfour and Zolésio [8].
متن کاملNew DKFT Elements for the Finite Element Analysis of Thin Viscoelastic Plates
In this paper, finite element analysis of thin viscoelastic plates is performed by proposing new plate elements using complex Fourier shape functions. New discrete Kirchhoff Fourier Theory (DKFT) plate elements are constructed by the enrichment of quadratic function fields in a six-noded triangular plate element with complex Fourier radial basis functions. In order to illustrate the validity...
