Zick's original paper makes no mention of bending stress at bottom, nor does it determine any way to calculate an associated factor (K8 or K7, depending on the reference), which makes me think that it does not contribute significantly to the stress state in the pressure vessel, but despite...
Hello everyone
I am using the attached equation to calculate the K8 factor used by the Pressure Vessel Handbook, in calculating the flexural stress at the bottom, which comes out using the attached procedure
The problem is that I have a difference between my calculation and the tabulated...
