Abstract
The static analysis of C-S short cylindrical shell under internal liquid pressure is presented. Pasternak’s equation was adopted as the governing differential equation for cylindrical shell. By satisfying the boundary conditions of the C-S short cylindrical shell in the general polynomial series shape function, a particular shape function for the shell was obtained. This shape function was substituted into the total potential energy functional of the Ritz method, and by minimizing the functional, the unknown coefficient of the particular polynomial shape function was obtained. Bending moments, shear forces and deflections of the shell were determined, and used in plotting graphs for cases with a range of aspect ratios, 1 ≤ L/r ≤ 4. For case 1, the maximum deflection was 8.65*10-4metres, maximum rotation was 3.06*10- 3radians, maximum bending moment was -886.45KNm and maximum shear force was -5316.869KN. For case 2, the maximum deflection was 2.18*10-4metres, maximum rotation was 7.74*10-4radians, maximum bending moment was 223.813KNm and maximum shear force was -1342.878KN. For case 3, the maximum deflection was 9.71*10-5metres, maximum rotation was 3.44*10-4radians, maximum bending moment was -99.463KNm and maximum shear force was -596.779KN. For case 4,the maximum deflection was 5.48*10-5metres, maximum rotation was 1.94*10- 4radians, maximum bending moment was 56.097KNm and maximum shear force was -336.584KN. It was observed that as the aspect ratio increases from 1 to 4, the deflections, bending moments and shear forces decreases, and the shell tends to behave like long cylindrical shell.
