In this study, the non-linear creep behaviour of a thick-walled cylinder made of stainless steel 316 is investigated using a semi-analytical method. The thick-walled cylinder is under a uniform internal pressure and a non-axisymmetric thermal field as a function of the radial and circumferential coordinates. For the high temperature and stress levels, creep phenomena play a major role in stress...

Elastic spherical shells loaded under uniform pressure are subject to equal and opposite compressive probing forces at their poles to trigger and explore buckling. When the shells support external pressure, buckling is usually axisymmetric; the maximum probing force and the energy barrier the probe must overcome are determined. Applications of the probing forces under two different loading cond...

The nonlinear axisymmetric post-buckling behaviour of perfect, thin, elastic spherical shells subject to external pressure and their asymmetric bifurcations are characterized, providing results for a structure/loading combination with an exceptionally nonlinear buckling response. Immediately after the onset of buckling, the buckling mode localizes into a dimple at the poles. The relations among...

Asymptotics of solutions to the Laplace equation with Neumann or Dirichlet conditions in the vicinity of a circular singular edge in a three-dimensional domain are derived and provided in an explicit form. These asymptotic solutions are represented by a family of eigen-functions with their shadows, and the associated edge flux intensity functions (EFIFs), which are functions along the circular ...

in this paper, an analytical solution for computing the linear plastic stresses and critical temperature and pressure in a fgm hollow cylinder under the internal pressure and temperature is developed. it has been assumed that the modulus of elasticity and thermal coefficient of expansion were varying through thickness of the fgm material according to a power law relationship. the poisson's...

Context. The MHD instabilities can generate complex field topologies even if the initial field configuration is a very simple one. Aims. We consider the stability properties of magnetic configurations containing a toroidal and an axial field. In this paper, we concentrate mainly on the behavior of non-axisymmetric perturbations in axisymmetric magnetic configurations. Methods. The stability is ...

Observations show that solar activity is distributed non-axisymmetrically, concentrating at “preferred longitudes”. This indicates the important role of non-axisymmetric magnetic fields in the origin of solar activity. We investigate the generation of the non-axisymmetric fields and their coupling with axisymmetric solar magnetic field. Our kinematic generation (dynamo) model operating in a sph...
