Large bending deformations of pressurized curved tubes
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, the problem of large pure bending deformations of membrane is considered. The membrane is a sector of torus with a closed cross-section. This membrane is called a curved tube for short. We consider the homogenous, incompressible, isotropic and hyperelastic material. The external load is a constant pressure and bending couples acting at the edges. The equilibrium equations reduce to ordinary differential equations. As an example, the membrane with a constant thickness and with a circular cross-section is investigated.

Collapse and folding of pressurized rings in two dimensions.
Hydrostatically pressurized circular rings confined to two dimensions (or cylinders constrained to have only z -independent deformations) undergo Euler-type buckling when the outside pressure exceeds a critical value. We perform a stability analysis of rings with arclength-dependent bending moduli and determine how weakened bending modulus segments affect the buckling critical pressure. Rings w...
متن کاملEvaluation of combined hardening model in ratcheting behavior of pressurized piping elbows subjected to in-plane moments
In this paper the ratcheting behavior of carbon steel(ASTM A106B) and stainless steel(304L) elbows is studied under steady internal pressure and in-plane external moments at frequencies typical of seismic excitations. The finite element analysis with the nonlinear isotropic/kinematic (combined) hardening model has been used to evaluate ratcheting behavior of the elbows. Material parameters have...
متن کاملAnalysis of pressure distribution and optimization of working conditions during push bending of circular tubes
Thin-walled tube bending is still to be considered a new and advanced technique. The process has been adopted into several industries such as aero and automotive. This process may produce a wrinkling, bulking and tearing phenomenon if the process parameters are inappropriate, especially for tubes with large diameter and thin wall thickness. Push bending process is one of the methods used for be...
متن کاملDecomposition of deformations of thin rods. Application to nonlinear elasticity
This paper deals with the introduction of a decomposition of the deformations of curved thin beams, with section of order δ, which takes into account the specific geometry of such beams. A deformation v is split into an elementary deformation and a warping. The elementary deformation is the analog of a Bernoulli-Navier’s displacement for linearized deformations replacing the infinitesimal rotat...
