Thin-walled Pressure Vessels
•  Cylindrical or spherical vessels are commonly used as
boilers or tanks
•  Internal pressure p causes stresses in the vessels
•  To simplify, we assume a thin-walled pressure vessels,
where the radius r and the thickness t, r/t >= 10, only 4%
less than the actual maximum stress
•  Since the thickness is thin, the stress is constant throughout
•  The atmospheric pressure is not considered as it is acting
equally both inside and outside the vessels
Thin-walled Pressure Vessels
•  Cylindrical Vessels subjected
circumferential or hoop direction σ1 and
longitudinal or axial direction σ2
•  To find the hoop stress, consider the
FBD below and then apply a force
equilibrium
Thin-walled Pressure Vessels
•  Similarly, the longitudinal stress or axial
stress can found by force equilibrium
equations
•  Hence, hoop stress is twice as large as
the longitudinal stress
Thin-walled Pressure Vessels
•  The spherical Vessels can be
analyzed in a similar manner as
the cylindrical vessels
Thin-walled Pressure Vessels
•  Both a cylindrical or a spherical pressure vessel is
subjected to biaxial stress, i.e. normal stress exist in only
two directions.
•  In fact, the radial stress also exists along a radial line,
although it can be ignore as the stresses in other two
directions are 5 to 10 times larger for thin-walled vessels.
Since the maximum radial stress is only equal to p
•  If the vessels are subjected to external pressure, it may
collapse or buckle

Example
State of Stress Caused by Combined
Loadings
•  Now we have to consider all stresses that are caused by
•  Internal axial force
•  Shear force
•  Bending moment
•  Torsional Moment
•  Thin-walled pressure
•  Usually, a member are subjected to several loadings,
hence the resultant stress distribution can be found by the
method of superposition provded that a lnear relationship
exists between the stress and the loads
