Abstract
In this investigation, we shall use Donnell's equation of shallow circular cylindrical shell to obtain an approximate solution for stresses in an infinitely long circular cylindrical shell with a circular hole about which there acts a self-equilibrated load. To satisfy the edge conditions, we first shall expand the appropriate solutions of the differential equation into series containing powers, products of powers and logarithm, of the characteristic parameter β ρ0 defined in (1). We then shall represent the unknown coefficients of the solutions in similar series including new constants which depend only on the material property and the type of loading. We determine the new unknown constants through simple algebraic equations. In conclusion, we shall present two examples for symmetric and anti-symmetric loadings, including expressions which illustrate their accuracy, and expressions for stress concentration.
