Question: A closed thin walled cylindrical vessel has a diameter ( mathbf { D } ) , a wall thickness (

A closed thin walled cylindrical vessel has a diameter \(\mathbf{D}\), a wall thickness \(\mathbf{t}\) of 2.9 mm and length \(\mathbf{L}\) of 730 mm . It is subject to an internal pressure \(\mathbf{P}\) of 45.0 MPa causing longitudinal strain, \(\varepsilon_{L}\) of 0.003 in the vessel. Assuming that Youngs modulus is 200\(\mathrm{GN}/\mathrm{m}^{2}\) and Poisson's ratio is 0.3, calculate the diameter D . Give your answer in mm to 3 significant figures.
