Hi,
how can i transform calculated stresses into hoop stresses? i read that femap should be able to do that, but where can i find it? and is it possible for beam elements too? or only solids?
@IRstuff: thanks. i deleted the link.
@paddingtongreen: i guess that makes sense. so the reaction force inside the structure is just going into the opposite direction of T?
@IRstuff, no worries i am just asking about things i found in a book. i want to know how to create an axial loading diagram if you assume that the missile structure is a circular tube.
and by the way. i am new here. could anyone tell me how to edit my posts after posting and how to send private...
the missile is a tactical missile and its fixed horizontally from an aircraft. i understand T=10W as the acceleration caused at the end of it by the rocket motor (as paddingtongreen said, the push).
i uploaded the previous pages...
thats the problem, the previous pages dont really explain anything related to that diagram.
i think the second diagram is supposed to be only the axial load P (see y-axis) over the missile length.
Hello,
I attached a part out of a book which is explaining how to assume stresses in a missile body in the pre-concept phase.
the theory behind is to assume a simple beam with a circular cross-section.
but what i dont quite understand is how they derive the second diagrams?
as far as i...
