Theory of Non-Symmetrical Bending State for Cylindrical Shell : Stresses in a Cylindrical Shell with a Local Radial Load

A charged rotating cylindrical shell

We give an example of a spacetime having an infinite thin rotating cylindrical shell constituted by a charged perfect fluid as a source. Then we disscuss the energy conditions and we show that our spacetime contains closed timelike curves. Trajectories of charged test particles both inside and outside the cylinder are also examined. Expression for the angular velocity of a circular motion insid...

Buckling Analysis of Cylindrical Grooved Shell under Axial Load Discs

In this paper, buckling of cylindrical grooved shells under axial load has been examined by theoretical and experimental methods. The shell is made of USA/API – X42 5L steel standards. This material is one of the most common materials used in gas, oil and petrochemical industries. The effect of spiral grooves on cylindrical shell was analyzed, and the results obtained from the Abaqus software w...

Local and Global Casimir Energies for a Semitransparent Cylindrical Shell

Abstract The local Casimir energy density and the global Casimir energy for a massless scalar field associated with a λδ-function potential in a 3+1 dimensional circular cylindrical geometry are considered. The global energy is examined for both weak and strong coupling, the latter being the well-studied Dirichlet cylinder case. For weak-coupling, through O(λ2), the total energy is shown to van...

Modeling of Vibration of a Fluidized Bed Cylindrical Shell

Optimal Thickness of a Cylindrical Shell

In this paper an optimization problem for a cylindrical shell is discussed. The aim is to look for an optimal thickness of a shell to minimize the deformation under an applied external force. As a side condition, the volume of the shell has to stay constant during the optimization process. The deflection is calculated using an approach from shell theory. The resulting control-to-state operator ...
