The Stressing of Thin Rings: A Simplified and Complete Method for the Solution of Continuous Rings

Aircraft Engineering and Aerospace Technology - Tập 11 Số 6 - Trang 228-237

Tóm tắt

THE usual formulæ for deflexions and bending moments in curved beams, as given in standard textbooks (e.g., Refs. 1 and 2), are not easily applied to the relatively flimsy closed rings used as stiffeners in contempory aircraft design. Two kinds of difficulty arise; one of computation, the other of principle.
