Problem 8.3.12
A pressurized steel tank is constructed with a helical weld that makes an angle =55 with the longitudinal axis (see figure). The tank has radius r=0.6m, wall thickness t=18mm, and internal pressure p=2.8MPa. Also, the steel has modulus of elasticity E=200GPa and Poisson's ratio v=0.30. Determine the following quantities for the cylindrical part of the tank.
(a) The circumferential and longitudinal stresses.
(b) The maximum in-plane and out-of-plane shear stresses.
(c) The circumferential and longitudinal strains.
(d) The normal and shear stresses acting on planes parallel and perpendicular to the weld (show these stresses on a properly oriented stress element).
