A Stress Analysis of Circular Cylindrical Shell Intersections, Including the Influences of Reinforcement, Cyclic Plasticity and Fatigue

Abstract

dc:description

The intersection of cylinders is an unavoidable element in many engineering installations such as nozzle to cylinder connections in nuclear reactors or pressure vessels, pipe intersections in offshore platforms etc. The region of intersection presents a sharp geometric discontinuity in the structure which produces a stress field with very high stress concentration.
