Happy to get back to these lessons I had more than a decade ago. A very good refresher.

Thank you Mr Hanson you the true Goat.

Good lesson. You mentioned to use the internal radius, but for a thin-walled cylinder i was taught to use the average radius (sum of internal and external radius divided by two).

Any thoughts?

Wonderful solids lessons!! really taking the time to explain the problems along with a good sense of humor :))

In the stress tensor for this problem would it be 2x2? Or would the torsional stress be negligible and be 0 in the 3x3?

Can you talk about axial and hoop strain using 3d hooks law

Is the 3.52ksi the acting force or the maximum allowable?

[seabasschukwu]

why does that element of the vessel have longitudinal stress if it was in the cylindrical part of the vessel
