STRESSES IN THIN CYLINDRICAL SHELL DUE TO INTERNAL PRESSURE CIRCUMFERENTIAL AND
LONGITUDINAL STRESSES AND DEFORMATION IN THIN AND THICK CYLINDERS
Univ.Q

Qs. No.

TLP No.1

1.

A cylindrical pipe of diameter 1.5 m and

thickness 1.5 cm is subjected to an internal
fluid pressure of 1.2 N/mm2. Determine the
longitudinal stress developed in the pipe.
Find the thickness of the pipe due to an internal
pressure of 10 N/mm2 if the permissible stress
is 120 N/mm2. The diameter of pipe is 750 mm.
Derive an expression for the longitudinal stress
in a thin cylinder subjected to an uniform
internal fluid pressure.
Distinguish between thick and thin cylinders.
Define thin cylinder?
What are types of stress in a thin cylindrical
vessel subjected to internal pressure?
What is mean by Circumferential stress (or
hoop stress) and Longitudinal stress?
What are the formula for finding circumferential
stress and longitudinal stress?
What are maximum shear stresses at any point
in a cylinder?

SPHERICAL SHELLS SUBJECTED TO INTERNAL PRESSURE

A spherical shell of 1 m diameter is subjected

to an internal pressure 0.5N/mm2. Find the
thickness if the thickness of the shell, if the
allowable stress in the material of the shell is
75 N/mm2.
