Fatt, Chairman PURC Design Dosis FOREWORD Several yours ago, the Pressure Vessel Research ‘Committee sponsored an analytical and experi ‘mental reseateh progesm aimed at providing meth- fode of determining the streses in pressure vessel hozsle connections subjected to various forms of xtestal loading. "The analytical portion of tia ‘work ws accomplished by Prof. P. P. Bijlaard of Commell University, and was reported in Hefer- fences 1 ta’ 8 inchisve, Development of the ‘thooretial solutions invalved « numberof simplify: ing. assumptions, including the use of shallow shell theory for spherical vests and extble Toad ing srfaces for eylindvical vessels. ‘These cir- ‘cumstances limited the potential usefulnes of the ‘ells to d,/D, ratio of perhaps 0.83 jn the ease ‘of spherical shells and 0.25 the eas0 of cylindrical Shela, Since no data were available for the lrgor lametor ratios, Prof. ijlanrd later eupplid data, fa the urging of the design engineers, fr he values of 8 ~ OAS and 0.50 (2,/D, ratios approaching 0.60) for eylindvical shells, as listed on page 12 of Reference 10. In so doing, Prof. Bijlaned in- cluded a specie warming concerning the possible Timitaione of thone datay ar follow! "The vel {ov thege lange londing surfaces were computed on reauest of several companize. Tt should be re- ‘membered, however, that they actually apply to ‘exible loading surfaces and, for radial oad, to the canter of the loading surface. It should be under- ‘ood thet sing these values for the edge of the Sttachment, aa was commended for small load fing surfaces, may be unconsorvative,” Following completion of the theoretical work, experimental work was undertaken in an effort to ‘erly the theory, the realta of which were pub- lished in’ References 17 and 18. Whereas this ‘work seemingly provided reasonable verification ofthe theory, i wa limited to relatively small d= 'D, ratioe0.10 in the caso of spherical shells and (0.138 in the case of eylindrical shells. Since vir- iy no data, ether analytical o experimental, ‘were available covering the larger diameter ratios, the Buzeaw of Ships sponsored a limited investigs tion of this problem in sphere, almed et « par- ticular design problem, and the Pressure Vessel Reasearch Committee undertook a somewbst sis ‘lar investigation in eylinders. Results of hi work have recently become svailable empbesizing the Timitstions ia Biflaed’s data_on eylindvicn! shells, particularly sit applies to thin shells over the “txtended range” (page 12 of Reference 10) Tncident to the use of Bijleard’s data for design purposes, it fas become apparent. that design engineers somstines have diffoulty in interpreting for property applying this work. As a result of ‘ch experience, PVI&C has felt it desirable tha all, of Bijlaar's work be simmarized in convenient, “cookbook” Yorm to faciitate its use by design ‘engineers. However, before this document could be issued, the above mentioned limitations became spparent, presenting an unfortunate dlerms, viz. the test data indicate that the calelated date ars pertilly inadequate, but the exact nature and Iognitide of the eror is not known, nor is any better analytical treatment of the peablers eva able (for cylinders) Tinder these circumstance. it wae decided that the best course wat to proceed with ting tb “cookbook, "extending Bijlaard'scurvesasbest we can on the basis of available test data. This tision was based on the premise that all of proposed changes would be toward the conservs Eve (or “anfe") side and. that design engineer ‘would contin to use Bilaard’s extended range ‘data unless some alternative sere offered. The following paper is therefore presented in the ho>s that it will facilitate the use of Bijlards worl: b design engineers. Every effort has heen made to point out any known limitations in the work and to explain the exact nature of the changes which have been made to Bijlaard’s original curves anc data; however, ure sre wamed that the resulting ‘work isnot nceetariy adequate for alleasss. It's the hope of the Subcommitta that additions theo retical work can be undertaken to provi fdequate data on various phases ofthis prot FS. G.
