Creep Strain and Stress Analysis in Laminated Composite Pres-sure Vessels

Authors

Abstract:

This study investigates the time-dependent long-term creep strain in a composite cylinder made of glass/vinylester with a unidirectional ply. The cylinder is subjected to an internal pressure and the boundary condition is free–free and acts as thermal insulation. The classical lamination theory (CLT) is used to derive the governing equations as a second-order equation to determine the radial, circum-ferential, axial, and effective stresses in the cylinder wall. The distribution of the radial and circumferential creep strains is based on the Schapery’s single integral model for nonlinear viscoelastic materials. This study focuses on the effect of the orientation of the fibers on the creep strain distribution in the wall of a cylinder. The results show that the creep strain is lower when  than at . As the angle of the fibers increases, the distribution of the creep strain becomes more uniform.

Review on Burst Pressure Analysis of Laminated Composite Pressure Vessels

Pressure vessels are used for various industrial applications. To ensure safe operation of pressure vessels, it is important to know its burst pressure. Burst pressure is the pressure at which vessel burst/crack and internal fluid leaks. For light weight application pressure vessel are made of composite material. Payload performance /speed /operating range depends up on weight. Use of composite...

Effects of Magnetic Field in Creep Behavior of Three-Phase Laminated Composite Cylindrical Shells

Due to the importance effect of magnetic field on the history of long-term radial and circumfer-ential creep strain and radial displacement for a three-phase nano-composite exposed to an internal pressure and placed uniform temperature, the present article subject has been pro-posed. Three-phase nano-composite made of single-walled carbon nano tubes (SWCNTs)/ glass fiber (GF)/vinylester used to...

Combined Multiscale Creep Strain and Creep Rupture Modeling for Composite Materials

In this study, a novel multiscale combined creep strain and creep rupture model is proposed. By comparing to experimental data it was shown that the model provides accurate creep rupture predictions for unidirectional off-axis specimens. The creep strain model provides accurate predictions within the confines of the linear elastic restrictions used in its development. This creep strain and cree...

Effect of Stress Waves on Laminated Composite Plates

Abstract-Several types of waves in a layered composite material were examined. In order to obtain explicit approximate solutions. a perturbation method was used. This approach views the nonhomogeneous layering as a perturbation on a homogeneous but anisotropic solid. For propagation normal to the direction of layering, it was necessary to include the second-order perturbation terms to get quali...
