The newly designed plasma display with the cylindrical hollow cathode has been proposed and investigated to study the relationship between the photoluminous efficiency and the discharge characteristics. The photoluminous efficiency and the discharge characteristics are dependent on the geometry factors of cylindrical hollow cathode and gas pressure in the plasma display. When p (gas pressure) d...

Buckling analysis of thin cylindrical shells is very important due to their production process.  Usually longitudinal and transversal stiffeners are used to increase the buckling stiffness. In this paper, considering a thin cylindrical shell with longitudinal and transversal ribs subjected to axial force and lateral pressure, the influence of different aspect of axial force to lateral pressure ...

In the field of materials engineering, various types advanced have been found. This must also be accompanied by technological advances in production process. Centrifugal casting is an effective method for cylindrical objects such as pipes and pressure vessels. this research, a centrifugal machine designed made. The design process follows steps proposed Pahl Beitz, starting from requirements ide...

Structural health monitoring is a developing research field which is multifunctional and can estimate the health condition of the structure by data analyzing and also can prognosticate the structural damages. Illuminating the damages by using piezoelectric sensors is one of the most effective techniques in structural health monitoring. Pressurized equipments are very important components in pro...

In this paper, exact closed-form solutions for displacement and stress components of thick-walled functionally graded (FG) spherical pressure vessels are presented. To this aim, linear variation of properties, as an important case of the known power-law function model is used to describe the FG material distribution in thickness direction. Unlike the pervious studies, the vessels can have arbit...
