A semi-analytical solution for plane velocity fields describing steady-state incompressible flow of nonlinearly viscous fluid into an elliptical opening is presented. The flow is driven by hydrostatic pressure applied at infinity. The solution is obtained by minimizing the rate of energy dissipation on a sufficiently flexible incompressible velocity field in elliptical coordinates. The medium is described by a power creep law and solutions are obtained for a range of exponents and ellipse eccentricites. The obtained solutions compare favorably with results of finite element analysis.

AbstractThe buckling and layer failure characteristics of composite laminated cylinders subjected to hydrostatic pressure were investigated through finite element analysis for underwater vehicle application. The Tsai-Wu failure criteria were used as the failure criteria for the buckling analysis. A sensitivity analysis was conducted to research the influence of the number of elements on the critical buckling pressure. ANSYS, a finite element program, successfully predicted the buckling pressure with 5.3–27.8% (linear) and 0.3–22.5% (nonlinear) deviation from experimental results. The analysis results showed that the cylinders can carry more pressure after a slight decrease in pressure and recovery of the supporting load. For layer failure analysis, it was found that the failure that occurred in the 0° layer was more serious than that in the 90° layer within the neighboring layers at the inner layers (nos. 1–7) and outer layers (nos. 8–24).

A classical solution derived by Jones (1968) is used to evaluate the buckling performance of unstiffened generally orthotropic and quasi-isotropic laminated Graphite/Epoxy (GREP) composite cylinders subjected to external hydrostatic pressure. The results of the analysis are compared to finite-element analysis results. Hydrostatic testing to failure of several 12-ply T300/5208 GREP cylinders demonstrated that the classical buckling solution is quite accurate. The finite-element results showed good agreement with both Jones' solution and test data, with several notable exceptions. Evaluation of strain gage data via Southwell's (1932) method indicates that the test cylinders were fabricated very nearly true. A postiori buckling predictions using Southwell plots all compared quite favorably with the Jones' equation predictions. This work demonstrates that a relatively simple analytical solution can reliably evaluate the performance of composite materials in pressure hull applications.

The effect of 3 forging routes (Route A - 1~12 passes by plane forging (PF) and reverse-plane forging (R-PF), Route B – 1~6 passes by PF and R-PF, 7~12 passes by diagonal forging (DF) and reversediagonal forging (R-DF), Route C – 1~12 passes by DF and R-DF) on maximum load to produce the workpiece, deformation heterogeneity and hydrostatic pressure distribution in AA1100 was theoretically investigated using finite element analysis (FEA). The maximum load per pass required to complete 1 cycle of the SPD process was different depending on the forging routes. Route A was relatively higher than Route B and C. From the results of effective strain, the deformation heterogeneity was predicted at the center, edge, and corner regions of the AA1100 workpiece produced by Route A and B. However, the distribution of effective strain in Route C was relatively more homogeneous than Route A and B. The average hydrostatic pressure, which is closely related to the suppression of crack formation in the workpiece under multi-axial forging, was predicted to be relatively bigger in Route C than Route A and B.
