Hi,
Thank you for all your input on this.
I would like to make a few things more clear.
When I refer to "a rectangular section of the wall", I am indeed thinking of a hypothetical arc length by axial length.
I believe the von misses equivalent stress is limited by poissons ratio (in that...
Hi,
Equivalent stress = (0.5^0.5))*((s1-s2)^2 +(s2-s3)^2 +(s3-s1)^2)^0.5
I am using the above formula to add principle stresses.
CASE 1
If I have a very long tube and want to find the stress in the wall.
I get hoop stress = 100 MPa. (Neglect radial stresses).
Therefore if my material yield...
