Book Description
A combined analytical and experimental investigation of the stability of composite cylindrical shells is presented. Forty-five fiber-glass filament wound cylinders were fabricated, buckled, and analyzed. The number 45 stems from considering three diameters (6 in, 12 in, 24 in), three filament configurations, and five loadings. All cylinders had essentially the same wall thickness, .035 in, and each cylinder length was nearly equal to its diameter. The five loadings were: (1) uniform axial compression, (2) torsion, (3) bending, (4)combined torsion and uniform axial compression, (5) combined bending and uniform axial compression. The analysis was based on linear anisotropic shell theory and the effects of boundary conditions were not considered. Preliminary tests were conducted to determine the in-plane stiffnesses and individual layer elastic properties. The experimental buckling loads were from 67 to 90% of predicted values for loading without torsion. The bending buckling stress was, for all practical purposes, equal to the axial buckling stress and the combined bending with uniform axial load interaction was essentially linear. The experimental torsion buckling loads were greater than the predicted values but the boundary conditions were not considered in the analysis. Buckling loads were computed for boron filament wound cylinders of the same size and winding configurations. These computations show that the buckling loads of boron and aluminum cylinders, of the same size, are nearly equal. A similar comparison on a weight basis would produce the same result since their densities are essentially equal.

Advances in Space Science and Technology
Author: Frederick I. Ordway
Publisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 1483224694
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 413
Book Description
Advances in Space Science and Technology, Volume 8 presents the possibility that what is recognized as lunar cratering was caused by endogenous, volcanic activity rather than by the more widely accepted meteoritic impact mechanism. This book provides an introduction to the technology of rocketry. Organized into four chapters, this volume begins with an overview of lunar volcanism and the interpretation of the widespread phenomenon of cratering. This text then provides a comprehensive examination of one of the major components of the solid propellant rocket. Other chapters consider the many problems associated with design, construction, and testing of motor cases of the solid propellant rocket. This book presents as well a thorough examination of interplanetary mission planning covering such vital elements as the process of mission decision making based on model theory. The final chapter deals with the exploration of the planet Mars. This book is a valuable resource for geoscientists, astronomers, and geologists.

Torsional Shear Strength of Filament-wound Glass-epoxy Tubes
Author: L. David Wall (Jr.)
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Fibrous composites
Languages : en
Pages : 52
Book Description
Results are presented from torsion tests conducted on 36 multilayered, filament-wound, glass-epoxy tubes. Configurations with helical windings and with alternating helical and circumferential windings were investigated for various winding angles. Under small loadings, shear moduli deduced from linear shear stress-strain curves were found to be in reasonable agreement with analytical predictions. Under larger loadings, various degrees of nonlinearity in shear stress-strain curves were encountered, depending on the helical winding angle. Experimental torsional strengths were defined by a 0.2 -percent offset yield stress or by maximum stress when large nonlinearities did not exist. These strengths were compared with torsional buckling predictions for orthotropic cylinders, and with material strength predictions based on orthotropic yield criteria and elastic stress analysis. Computed elastic buckling stresses were considerably higher than the experimental strengths for most of the test specimens except for those with only 30° and 45 [degree] windings. Experimental torsional strengths- were found to correlate with conventional yield predictions if predicted yielding in certain layers were ignored or if unrealistically large transverse tensile and shear strengths of unidirectional laminae were employed in the analysis.
