Thin-walled Pressure Vessels (continued)
Mohr’s Circle for a
cylindrical pressure vessel for in-plane stresses on the outer surface where
σ1 = pr/t (circumferential) and σ2
= pr/2t
(longitudinal) Note: σ1 and
σ2 are the in-plane principal
stresses. The maximum in-plane
shearing stress is rotated 45o from the faces of the
element shown above. The value of the
maximum in-plane
shearing stress for an element on the outer surface of the cylinder is just |
