The paper presents the theoretical and experimental results obtained when 15 machined circular section conical shells were tested to destruction under uniform external hydrostatic pressure. Three of the shells buckled elastically, but the other 12 buckled inelastically. Previous research has found that the inelastic buckling of such shells with small initial out-of-circularity has defied exact mathematical analysis, due to the fact that the initial out-of-circularity is very small and also of random distribution about the circumference. In this paper these results are used to provide a design chart that enables the inelastic buckling pressures of these vessels to be successfully determined. This design chart should prove to be more accurate, but less conservative, than existing design charts, so that the factor of ignorance is decreased and more reliability can be placed on the true factor of safety.

Ductile To Brittle Transition

The ductile-to-brittle cutting mode transition in single grit diamond scribing of monocrystalline silicon is investigated in this paper. Specifically, the effects of scriber tip geometry, coefficient of friction, and external hydrostatic pressure on the critical depth of cut associated with ductile-to-brittle transition and crack generation are studied via an eXtended Finite Element Method (XFEM) based model, which is experimentally validated. Scribers with a large tip radius are shown to produce lower tensile stresses and a larger critical depth of cut compared with scribers with a sharp tip. Spherical tipped scribers are shown to generate only surface cracks, while sharp tipped scribers (conical, Berkovich and Vickers) are found to create large subsurface tensile stresses, which can lead to nucleation of subsurface median/lateral cracks. Lowering the friction coefficient tends to increase the critical depth of cut and hence the extent of ductile mode cutting. The results also show that larger critical depth of cut can be obtained under external hydrostatic pressure. This knowledge is expected to be useful in optimizing the design and application of the diamond coated wire employed in fixed abrasive diamond wire sawing of photovoltaic silicon wafers.

This paper present an investigation of the collapse load in cylinder shell under uniformexternal hydrostatic pressure with optimum design using finite element method viaANSYS software. Twenty cases are studied inclusive stiffeners in longitudinal and ringstiffeners. Buckling mode shape is evaluated. This paper studied the optimum designgenerated by ANSYS for thick cylinder with external hydrostatic pressure. The primarygoal of this paper was to identify the improvement in the design of cylindrical shell underhydrostatic pressure with and without Stiffeners (longitudinal and ring) with incorporativetechnique of an optimization into ANSYS software. The design elements in this researchwas: critical load, design variable (thickness of shell (TH), stiffener’s width (B) andstiffener’s height (HF). The results obtained illustrated that the objective is minimizedusing technique of numerical optimization in ANSYS with optimum shell thickness andstiffener’s sizes. In all cases the design variables (thickness of shell) was thicker than themonocoque due to a shell’s thicker is essential to achieve the strength constraints. It can beconcluded that cases (17,18,19, and 20) have more than 90% of un-stiffened critical load.The ring stiffeners causes increasing buckling load than un-stiffened and longitudinalstiffened cylinder.
