The residual stresses produced by a circumferential weld between axisymmetric cylinders are one of the most important problems concerning buckling strength, fatigue strength, stress corrosion cracking in shell structures, and arc quite different from those due to a butt weld between flat plates. This paper presents experimental studies on weld cylinder models of various heat inputs and thin cylinder diameters by blind hole drilling method. As a result, it is certified that weld residual stress (axial stress and hoop stress) is larger, as heat input and shell cylinder diameter are larger, and that experimental results show good agreement with the result of preceding researchers.

A stability problems of isotropic shells under pure bending is investigated based on the classical shells theory. The governing equations of stability problem presented by Donnell and Love, are developed and the solutions for the cylindrical shells are obtained by using Galerkin method. Bending moment is applied at the ends of the cylindrical shell as a from of distributed load in the shape of sine curve. For the isotropic materials, the result of the general purpose structural analysis program based on the finite element method are compared with the critical moment obtained from the classical shell theories. The critical loads for the cylindrical shells with various geometry can not be evaluated with a simple equation. However, accurate solutions for the stability problems of cylindrical shells can be obtained through the equilibrium equation developed in the study.

In this work, thermo-elastic stability behavior of laminated cross-ply elliptical cylindrical shells subjected to uniform temperature rise is studied employing the finite element approach based on higher-order theory that accounts for the transverse shear and transverse normal deformations, and nonlinear in-plane displacement approximations through the thickness with slope discontinuity at the layer interfaces. The combined influence of higher-order shear deformation, shell geometry and non-circularity on the prebuckling thermal stress distribution and critical temperature parameter of laminated elliptical cylindrical shells is examined.

This paper deals with the dynamic buckling behavior of truncated conical shells composed of carbon nanotube composites, an important area of study in view of their very wide engineering applications in aerospace industries. In this regard, the effective material properties of the nanocomposite have been computed using the Mori-Tanaka model, which has already been established for such analyses. The motion equations ruling the structure's behavior are derived using first order shear deformation theory, Hamilton's principle, and energy method. This will provide adequate background information on its dynamic response. In an effort to probe the dynamic instability region of the structure, differential quadrature method combined with Bolotin's method will be adopted to tackle the resulting motion equations, which enables efficient and accurate analysis. This work considers the effect of various parameters in the geometrical parameters and the volume fraction of CNTs on the structure's DIR. Specifically, it became clear that increasing the volume fraction of CNTs shifted the frequency range of the DIR to higher values, indicating the significant role of nanocomposite composition regarding structure stability.

Residual stresses and deformations due to welding have effects on the strength of structures. In this paper, the compressive strength of basic welded structures is studied and the effects of the residual stresses and deformations on the compressive strength of beams, plates and shells are investigated,. Theoretical analysis for the basic structures is carried out and simplified methods to calculate the compressive strength are proposed. The proposed methods yield simple formulas to calculate the compressive strength, of which results are much helpful. The accuracy of the proposed method is revealed by comparison with experimental results.

The bucking and postbuckling behavior of composite laminated long cylinders under lateral pressure are investigated by the nonlinear finite element method. A long cylinder of 3-D shell problem is modelled as 2-D plane strain problem for analysis. And for the finite element analysis, eight nodes quadratic element is utilized. Arc-length method is adopted for the iteration and load-increment along postbuckling equilibrium path. The composite laminated cylinders in study are composed of cross-plied uniaxially reinforced shells. As a prsult, buckling load and postbuckling behavior are discussed.

The structural behaviors of a arch composed of flexible membrane are investigated. The membrane is considered as thin shell with internal pressure during FEM analysis by using ABAQUS. In the paper, a wind load and uniformly distributed vertical load are considered. As a vertical load, snow loads including applied over all and half of the structure are introduced. The ends of arch are fixed to the ground. Load-Deflections relationship, buckling mode of the structure are presented.

Axially compressed circular cylinders repeat symmetry-breaking bifurcation in the postbuckling region. There exist stable equilibria with all symmetry broken in the buckled configuration, and the minimum postbuckling strength is attained at the deep bottom of closely spaced equilibrium branches. The load level corresponding to such postbuckling stable solutions is usually much lower than the initial buckling load and may serve as a strength limit in shell stability design. The primary concern in the present paper is to compute these possible postbuckling stable solutions at the deep bottom of the postbuckling region. Two computational approaches are used for this purpose. One is the application of individual procedures in computational bifurcation theory. Path-tracing, pinpointing bifurcation points and (local) branch-switching are all applied to follow carefully the postbuckling branches with the decreasing load in order to attain the target at the bottom of the postbuckling region. The buckled shell configuration loses its symmetry stepwise after each (local) branch-switching procedure. The other is to introduce the idea of path jumping (namely, generalized global branch-switching) with static imperfection. The static response of the cylinder under two-parameter loading is computed to enable a direct access to postbuckling equilibria from the prebuckling state. In the numerical example of an elastic perfect circular cylinder, stable postbuckling solutions are computed in these two approaches. It is demonstrated that a direct path jump from the undeformed state to postbuckling stable equilibria is possible for an appropriate choice of static perturbations.

In this paper elastic-plastic large deflection analysis of ship structural members, plates, stiffened plates and cylindrical shallow shell, are performed by the finite element method. And for the consideration of the yielded propagation through the depth of the member, the layered element approach is employed. The present method is justified by comparing its results with those of experiment and others. As results, the nonlinear behavior and the ultimate strength curves are shown, which can be used in the design of the plates and the stiffened plates under compression, and the applicability to the shell structures is suggested. The analysis results are as followings. (1) The results of the approximate equations as well as those of buckling analysis may not guarantee precisely the safety of the structures in some cases and the optimum in other cases. Therefore they may not show the design criteria for the optimal design. (2) As the initial deflection increases, its effects on the ultimate strength of the structure generally increases, and the ultimate load, therefore, decreases. (3) This approach can be applied to the shell type structures. (4) The present method can be applied to the various structures composed of plate and beam members, for example, plates with hole and the stiffened plates with hole stiffened by spigot, doubler and/or stiffener, for the optimal design.

HSB 고강도 강재를 적용한 균일모멘트를 받는 세장 복부판을 갖는 강거더에 대하여 비탄성 횡비틂좌굴 거동을 상용 ABAQUS 프로그램을 이용하여 비선형 유한요소해석으로 분석하였다. 해석대상 강거더는 압축플랜지의 국부좌굴이 휨강도를 지배하지 않도록 플랜지는 조밀 또는 비조밀 요소에 해당하는 세장비를 갖도록 설계하였으며, 횡방향 비지지길이는 탄성 횡비틂좌굴 강도 이상의 휨강도를 갖도록 선정하였다. HSB600 및 HSB800 강재로 제작된 균질단면 강거더와 HSB800과 SM570-TMC 강재를 동시에 적용한 하이브리드 단면를 고려하였고, 일반강재와의 상대적인 비교를 위하여 SM490-TMC 균질단면 강거더에 대한 해석도 수행하였다. 비선형 유한요소해석 시에는 플랜지와 복부판을 쉘요소로, 강재는 탄소성-변형경화 재료로 모델링하였다. 초기변형과 단면의 잔류응력을 고려하였으며 이들이 비탄성 횡비틂좌굴 영역에서 휨거동에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 총 64개의 해석대상 강거더에 대하여 FE 해석과 설계식에 의한 휨저항강도를 비교한 결과, HSB 강재를 적용한 균질단면 및 하이브리드 단면 거더의 비탄성 횡비틂좌굴에 의한 휨강도는 현 AASHTO LRFD 압축플랜지 휨강도 탄성 설계규정을 적용하여 산정할 수 있는 것으로 분석되었다.
