Abstract

A closed-form solution of the subject problem is presented. The analytical method resembles that used by Bleich (1933) to study curved beams of I or T section. It is found that the circumferential stress may be smaller than a perpendicular stress that arises from flexing of parts of the box. Accuracy of the solution is verified by comparison with finite element analyses.
