    Shell thickness of a pressure vessel required subjected to a cyclic pressure

    For the first part, I thought of using Hopp stress equestion σ = p d / 2 t and taking Endurance stress (400 MPa) as the value for σ since in the cyclic pressure is 400 bar which less that Endurance stress, thus: 4 x 10^8 = [(4 x...
