I. INTRODUCTION TO THE LESSON
● Lesson Title
Stresses in Thin-Walled Cylinder
● Lesson Overview
This module will determine the shearing stress at any point of a thin-walled member.
- a cylindrical tank carrying a gas or fluid under a pressure p is subjected to tensile forces that
resist the bursting forces developed across longitudinal and transverse sections.
Tangential
(Circumferential) Stress,
Thus,
A water tank is 8-m in diameter and 12-m high. If the tank is to be completely filled, determine the
minimum thickness of the tank plating if the stress is limited to 40 MPa.
