On the Strength of Toroidal Shells : 2nd Report, Examples of Application of the Solutions

Abstract

In order to verify the usefulness of the method for solving the fundamental differential equations for torcidal shells, which was proposed in the first report, some examples of application are shown in this report. The first example is concerned with the bellows, the second with the Ω joint, the third again with the Ω joint of another type, and the fourth with the problem of thermal stresses of pressure vesscls.
