Abstract
Abstract Experimental and theoretical deflection studies are briefly described for several steel rings, of uniform rectangular cross section, compressed by two forces along a diameter and having D/d ratios ranging from 1.3 to 1.9. The calculations are based on the principle of Castigliano and expressions for strain energy due to bending, normal, and shear stresses. Discrepancies between the theoretical estimate and the tests are shown.
