Abstract

Abstract Cylindrical shell structure is widely used in pressure vessels. In this paper, the orthotropic cylindrical shell structure is analyzed based on the theory of elastoplastic mechanics and the Hill48 yield criterion, the elastoplastic limit load expression of the orthotropic cylindrical shell and the corresponding three-dimensional stress formulas at different stages are obtained. The effect of the radius ratio and the yield strength ratio on the elastic limit load and plastic limit load of the cylindrical shell are also discussed. Finally, the orthotropic cylindrical shell structure is simulated by finite element method, the numerical results verify the correctness of the analytical solutions.
