UL-58 Roark equation check for shell thickness

Material is SA 36
Outer Diameter Do = 2614 mm = 102.913385827 in.
Overall Length L = 8000 mm = 314.960629921 in.
Depth over the diameter = 2000 mm = 78.7401574803 in.
Shell Thickness ts = 7 mm = 0.27559055118 in.
Modulus of Elasticity Es = 29500000 psi
Poisson Ratio u = 0.287
Depth to be used in Equation = 2000 mm = 78.7401574803 in.
P1 = 6.556494 PSI
ts min = [(P1Lr3/2(1-u2)3/4)/0.807Es)]0.4
ts min = 0.24601325 in. = 6.25 mm without using stiffeners

ts min = [(P1(L/1.25)r3/2(1-u2)3/4)/0.807Es)]0.4
ts min = 0.22500621 = 5.72 mm In case of using one stiffener

ts min = [(P1(L/1.4)r3/2(1-u2)3/4)/0.807Es)]0.4
ts min = 0.21503408 = 5.46 mm In case of using two stiffeners

ts = 7 mm is accepted without using stiffeners

In case of using Stiffeners:


Stiffener required MOI Ireq = (0.11PLD3)/Es
8.39294172 in4 = 349.34 Cm4
