Elastic Shells

This paper is concerned with the initial response of a restricted class of thin elastic shells to localized transient loadings. Attention is restricted to those shells which are essentially spherical and shallow in a neighborhood of the loading. The initial response within this neighborhood can be approximated by the response of a (shallow) spherical shell segment to a concentrated force within the framework of a modified shallow-shell theory.

Beam Theories

A great deal of published literature exists which analyzes the free vibrations of turbomachinery blades by means of one-dimensional beam theories. Recently, a more accurate, two-dimensional analysis method has been developed based upon shallow shell theory. The present paper summarizes the two types of theories and makes quantitative comparisons of frequencies obtained by them. Numerical results are presented for cambered and/or twisted blades of uniform thickness. Significant differences between the theories are found to occur, especially for low aspect ratio blades. The causes of these differences are discussed.

Plane Bending

A consistent set of equations for the in-plane and out-of-plane bending of pipe bends is derived from the equations of shell theory with a correction for the coupling effect of internal pressure. The resulting governing equations are solved numerically and compared with other experimental and theoretical solutions.

Lower Bound Limit Analysis

A lower-bound limit analysis of loaded integral lugs on cylindrical shells is presented. Normal force and circumferential and longitudinal moment loadings on the lug are considered. The equilibrium solution, necessary for a lower bound, is obtained as a convolution integral of the concentrated load solutions of linear shallow shell theory. The load distribution is chosen to satisfy the yield condition everywhere, while maximizing the load. A simplified yield condition in terms of the shell stress resultants is used. Failure is assumed to occur in the shell, not the lug. Encouraging comparisons with available experimental results for moment-loaded rectangular lugs on pipes are presented. The use of shallow shell theory enables the problem geometry to be described by one less parameter than complete shell theory.

Twisted Blade

The literature dealing with vibrations of turbomachinery blades is voluminous, but the vast majority of it treats the blades as beams. In a previous paper a two-dimensional analytical procedure was developed and demonstrated on simple models of blades having camber. The procedure utilizes shallow shell theory along with the classical Ritz method for solving the vibration problem. Displacement functions are taken as algebraic polynomials. In the present paper the method is demonstrated on blade models having camber. Comparisons are first made with results in the literature for nonrotating twisted plates and various disagreements between results are pointed out. A method for depicting mode shape information is demonstrated, permitting one to examine all three components of displacement. Finally, the analytical procedure is demonstrated on rotating twisted blade modes, both without and with camber.
