| Abstract: | The elastoplastic state of isotropic homogeneous cylindrical shells with elliptic holes and finite deflections under internal pressure is studied. Problems are formulated and numerically solved taking into account physical and geometrical nonlinearities. The distribution of stresses (displacements, strains) along the boundary of the hole and in the zone of their concentration is analyzed. The data obtained are compared with the numerical solutions of the physically nonlinear, geometrically nonlinear, and linear problems. The stress-strain state of cylindrical shells in the neighborhood of the elliptic hole is analyzed with allowance for nonlinear factors __________ Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika, Vol. 43, No. 5, pp. 46–54, May 2007. |
