Nonlinear Static Analysis of Egg-Shaped Toroidal Shells under Internal Pressure
Main Article Content
Abstract
This paper presents a nonlinear static analysis of egg-shaped toroidal shells under internal pressure. Strain- and curvature-displacement relations are considered in the energy functional of the egg-shaped toroidal shell system in terms of the metric tensor and curvature components, and are written in terms of the appropriate form for nonlinear analysis. Lagrange multiplier’s method is introduced in the present formulation to enforce the discontinuity effect. The numerical results in terms of the meridian and normal to the meridian displacements can be obtained by nonlinear finite element method. The toroidal shell displacements from the present formulation are found to be in close agreement with the finite element commercial software results. Finally, the effects of the internal pressure, cross-sectional radii ratio, and bend-to-cross-sectional radii ratio on the numerical results in terms of toroidal shell displacements are demonstrated in this paper.
