Abstract

An analysis of a doubly symmetric oval ring fabricated from uniform, dissimilar, circular segments connected by a smooth transition section is presented. The ring is subject to a uniform radial load applied on an oval reference line. For several ovals the stress distribution is determined for various lengths of transition section. For each oval there is found an optimum length of transition section as well as a length for which the stress at the foot of the transition section vanishes.
