PROBLEM (9.16) A thin-walled cylindrical pressure vessel of radius r = 0.4 m and wall thickness
t = 8 mm has a welded spiral seam at an angle of
=60o with the axial direction. The shell is subjected
to an internal pressure of p pascals and an axial tensile load of P = 10π kN applied through rigid end
plates. Calculate the permissible value p if the allowable normal and shear stresses acting simultaneously
in the plane of welding are not to exceed all
= 25 and all
= -10 MPa, respectively.
