composite pressure vessel cng made of epoxy – carbon material with nonmetal liner is 60% lighter than aluminum vessel under the same conditions. one of the important parameters in the pressure vessels design is their resistance against impact and prevention of explosion. in this paper, the effects of low velocity impact on composite pressure vessel are investigated using fe analysis. the vessel...

in this paper, multi-stage optimum design of composite pressure vessels is presented. the design variables for composite vessels include the head shape, the winding angle, the layer thickness, the number of layers, and the stacking sequence. a parameter called modified shape factor is introduced as an objective function. this parameter takes into account the effects of the internal pressure and...

In this paper the effect of composite hoop-wrapped on stress intensity factor for semi-elliptical external crack which located in spherical pressure vessel, were investigated through the Finite Element Analysis. In order to find the effect of some parameters such as composite thickness and width, internal pressure and crack geometry, comparisons between different cases were done and discussed i...

this paper presents an exact analytical solution for two-dimensional conductive heat transfer in spherical composite pressure vessels .the vessels are in spherical shape and fibers are winded in circumferential direction. the analytical solution is obtained under the general boundary conditions which consist of convection, conduction and radiation inside/outside of vessel. the heat transfer equ...

BACKGROUND The predictive value of fractional flow reserve (FFR) measured immediately after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with drug-eluting stent placement has not been prospectively investigated. We investigated the potential of post-PCI FFR measurements to predict clinical outcome in patients from FAME 1 and 2 trials (Fractional Flow Reserve or Angiography for Multivessel Evaluatio...

An analytical method for predicting elastic–plastic stress distribution in a cylindrical pressure vessel has been presented. The vessel material was a ceramic/metal functionally graded material, i.e. a particle–reinforcement composite. It was assumed that the material’s plastic deformation follows an isotropic strain-hardening rule based on the von-Mises yield criterion, and that the vessel was...

Burst pressure is the vital parameter to be strong-minded for their design. at which vessel crack and core fluid seep outs. A design shelterbound that ought not surpassed. Further than this possibly willescort mechanical fall foul of enduring loss restraint. The present work aimed in studying (PV) made with composite material. During study PV fabricated by glass fiber 90O angle performed hydros...

in this paper, an experimental and numerical investigation into the effect of the hoop welding in metallic pressure vessel is presented. in the experimental manufacturing, hoop welding was used to attach the cylindrical body of the vessel, and the effect of welding into stress and strain distribution is carried out. experimental strains are obtained by using the strain gauges attached to predet...
