Thermal Stress in Anisotropic Cylinders

Stresses in Anisotropic Cylinders

Axisymmetrical stresses in an infinitely long hollow isotropic circular cylinder (plane strain) quickly approach their asymptotic values as the external radius increases. This is not the case if the cylinder is even slightly anisotropic -asymptotic solutions (for an infinitely large external radius) do not exist. We find the mechanical meaning of this disparity by using formulas for radial and ...

investigation on stress distribution of functionally graded nanocomposite cylinders reinforced by carbon nanotubes in thermal environment

in this paper, stress and displacement fields of functionally graded (fg) nanocomposite cylinders reinforced by carbon nanotubes (cnts) subjected to internal pressure and in thermal environment are investigated by finite element method. the nanocomposite cylinders are combinations of single-walled carbon nanotubes (swcnts) and isotropic matrix. material properties are estimated by a micro mecha...

Tailoring Effective Media by Mie Resonances of Radially-Anisotropic Cylinders

This paper studies constructing advanced effective materials using arrays of circular radially-anisotropic (RA) cylinders. Homogenization of such cylinders is considered in an electrodynamic case based on Mie scattering theory. The homogenization procedure consists of two steps. First, we present an effectively isotropic model for individual cylinders, and second, we discuss the modeling of a l...
