Forced Plane Strain Motion of Cylindrical Shells—A Comparison of Shell Theory With Elasticity Theory
Keyword(s):
A radially directed load is suddenly applied to a portion of the outer surface of a circular cylindrical shell which responds in a state of plane strain. An analytical solution for the resulting dynamic response is obtained within the context of linear elasticity theory, Flu¨gge shell theory, and an “improved” shell theory. A comparison of results for specific loading conditions indicates that the improved theory is far superior to the Flu¨gge theory in terms of predicting both the magnitude and characteristics of the response. However, as expected, neither shell theory satisfactorily predicts the wave character of the initial response.
