In this work, the stress distribution along cylindrical composite pressure vessels with different dome geometries is investigated. The contours are generated through an integral method based on shell stresses. Here, influence of each contour at interface dome-cylinder evaluated. At first, formulation for curve generation presented and solved contours. An analytical approach calculation secondar...

The structure and transport properties of pit membranes at the interface between the metaxylem and xylem parenchyma cells and the possible role of these pit membranes in solute transfer to the phloem were investigated. Electron microscopy revealed a fibrillar, almost tubular matrix within the pit membrane structure between the xylem vessels and xylem parenchyma of leaf blade bundles in rice (Or...

We study a nonlinear, unsteady, moving boundary, fluid–structure interaction (FSI) problem in which the structure is composed of two layers: a thick layer, and a thin layer which serves as a fluid–structure interface with mass. The fluid flow, which is driven by the time-dependent dynamic pressure data, is modeled by the Navier–Stokes equations for an incompressible, viscous fluid, defined on a...

One source of structural vibration in a submarine is the fluctuating axial thrust force applied to the thrust block by the propeller shaft. This paper describes the initial stages of experimental work being undertaken to validate an existing mathematical model for the sound radiation from a submarine excited by this mechanism. A thin cylindrical shell 1500mm long and 400mm in diameter made of 2...

Using disk form multilayers, a semi-analytical solution has been derived for determination of displacements and stresses in a rotating cylindrical shell with variable thickness under uniform pressure. The thick cylinder is divided into disk form layers form with their thickness corresponding to the thickness of the cylinder. Due to the existence of shear stress in the thick cylindrical shell wi...
