Design the tank of an air compressor which is to hold pressure of 1MPa. The inner diameter of the tank is 50cm, and we assume the wall thickness is much smaller. The wall material has the critical shear strength for yielding Ty = 200MPa. Applying Tesca yield criterion, using safety factor 3, determine the minimum requirement on wall thickness.
