Thermo-mechanical stresses analysis of laminated hollow circular cylinder with finite length are carried out in this study based on the theory of laminated composites. The hollow circular cylinders with finite length are simply supported at four edges and are subjected to nonuniform thermal and mechanical loadings on the inner and outer surfaces. Analytical solutions of temperature distribution and thermo-mechanical stress fields are derived by using variable separation approach and series solving method. A four -layer laminated hollow circular cylinder with finite length is numerically analyzed by using the present method. All results are graphically presented and briefly discussed.

An exact elasticity solution is developed for a radially nonhomogeneous hollow circular cylinder of exponential Young’s modulus and constant Poisson’s ratio. In the solution, the cylinder is first approximated by a piecewise homogeneous one, of the same overall dimension and composed of perfectly bonded constituent homogeneous hollow circular cylinders. For each of the constituent cylinders, the solution can be obtained from the theory of homogeneous elasticity in terms of several constants. In the limit case when the number of the constituent cylinders becomes unboundedly large and their thickness tends to infinitesimally small, the piecewise homogeneous hollow circular cylinder reverts to the original nonhomogeneous one, and the constants contained in the solutions for the constituent cylinders turn into continuous functions. These functions, governed by some systems of first-order ordinary differential equations with variable coefficients, stand for the exact elasticity solution of the nonhomogeneous cylinder. Rigorous and explicit solutions are worked out for the ordinary differential equation systems, and used to generate a number of numerical results. It is indicated in the discussion that the developed method can also be applied to hollow circular cylinders with arbitrary, continuous radial nonhomogeneity.

Analytical solutions of stress fields in functionally graded circular hollow cylinder with finite length subjected to axisymmetric pressure loadings on inner and outer surfaces are presented in this paper. The cylinder is simply supported at its two ends. Young's modulus of the material is assumed to vary continuously in radial direction of the cylinder. Moreover, numerical results of stresses in functionally graded circular hollow cylinder are appeared.

The flow past circular cylinders of finite length, supported at one end and lying with their axes perpendicular to a uniform stream, has been investigated in a supersonic stream at Mach number 1.96 and also in a low-speed stream. In both stream it was found that the flow past the cylinders could be divided into three regions: (a) a central region, (b) that near the free end of the cylinder, and (c) that near the supported end. The locations of the second and third regions were found to be almost independent of the cylinder length-to-diameter ratio, provided that this exceeded 4, while the flow within and the extent of the first region were dependent on this ratio. Form-drag coefficients determined in the central region in the supersonic flow were in close agreement with the values determined at the same Mach number by other workers. In the low-speed flow the local form-drag coefficients were dependent on length-to-diameter ratio and were always less than that of an infinite-length cylinder at the same Reynolds number.

AbstractThe long-time viscous flow about two identical rotating circular cylinders in a side-by-side arrangement is investigated using an adaptive numerical scheme based on the vortex method. The Stokes solution of the steady flow about the two-cylinder cluster produces a uniform stream in the far field, which is the so-called Jeffery’s paradox. The present work first addresses the validation of the vortex method for a low-Reynolds-number computation. The unsteady flow past an abruptly started purely rotating circular cylinder is therefore computed and compared with an exact solution to the Navier–Stokes equations. The steady state is then found to be obtained for $t\gg 1$ with ${\mathit{Re}}_{\omega } {r}^{2} \ll t$, where the characteristic length and velocity are respectively normalized with the radius ${a}_{1} $ of the circular cylinder and the circumferential velocity ${\Omega }_{1} {a}_{1} $. Then, the influence of the Reynolds number ${\mathit{Re}}_{\omega } = { a}_{1}^{2} {\Omega }_{1} / \nu $ about the two-cylinder cluster is investigated in the range $0. 125\leqslant {\mathit{Re}}_{\omega } \leqslant 40$. The convection influence forms a pair of circulations (called self-induced closed streamlines) ahead of the cylinders to alter the symmetry of the streamline whereas the low-Reynolds-number computation (${\mathit{Re}}_{\omega } = 0. 125$) reaches the steady regime in a proper inner domain. The self-induced closed streamline is formed at far field due to the boundary condition being zero at infinity. When the two-cylinder cluster is immersed in a uniform flow, which is equivalent to Jeffery’s solution, the streamline behaves like excellent Jeffery’s flow at ${\mathit{Re}}_{\omega } = 1. 25$ (although the drag force is almost zero). On the other hand, the influence of the gap spacing between the cylinders is also investigated and it is shown that there are two kinds of flow regimes including Jeffery’s flow. At a proper distance from the cylinders, the self-induced far-field velocity, which is almost equivalent to Jeffery’s solution, is successfully observed in a two-cylinder arrangement.
