Stress analysis Definition and 65 Threads

I'm doing stress analysis on a circular region on this part where an o-ring seals against. There is a 7500 PSI normal force being applied on it. So you can think about it as an annular circular flat plate (like a washer) with the 7500 PSI force uniformally distributed on the surface. I want...

hello sir, I have completed my b.tech in mechanical engineering, and am looking forward to start my career in pipe stress analysis and piping design. I would be happy to receive your valuable suggestions regarding the industry, job opportunities in and abroad. thankyou, jaswanth

Dear Fellows, Well, i am working on a power plant and i need to analyse the Cooling Water Piping Circuit (Supply/Return piping), i.e., from Turbine Surface Condenser to Cooling Towers and from Cooling Water Pumps to Turbine Surface Condenser. The Lines are huge around 52" NPS and are buried...

Dear All, I work in an engineering company here in Abu Dhabi, UAE. Very recently, we have been asked by our clients to perform STRESS ANALYSIS FOR THE FIRE FIGHTING PIPELINES. But my engineer initially said that for FIGHTING PIPELINES, stress analysis is not required as the water is...

Homework Statement Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution I'm in doubt the angle that I should be using to solve σx' and Tx'y'. Is 60 degree or -30 degree? Ps: I know how to determine the principal stresses and max shear. Just the angle that I'm in doubt at. 60 -30

I'm looking to buy a book or three on pipe stress analysis and design. If you work in this field, please make some recommendations for me. Thanks,

Hello, I need help with a simple stress analysis. I have a 25 in x 25 in sheet of Lexan that's 0.125 in thick and is constrained from all sides (the Lexan is used a protective shield). I want to know if a small water jet from a pressure vessel at 7000 psi would crack./break that sheet of...

Hi, I'm trying to calculate the max (von Mises) stress in a 90o pipe bend. Now I know (I think) how to do it for a straight pipe, but can anyone point me in the right direction as to where I can find this analysis for a pipe bend? Thanks in advance.

An unloaded alumininium bar is 1.5m long and has a width and depth of 75mm and 25mm respectively, at room temperature. Determine the following when the bar is subjected to an axial tensile load of 180KN. a) The tensile stress b) The tensile strain c) The lateral strain d) The change in...

Piping stress analysis problem -- help please well, hi all of you, well i am new to this forum but here is why i am here : ) the problem is: a rod of certain length is fixed at one end, the other end of the rod is attached to a spring of stiffness k, then rod temperature is increased and the...

Stress analysis of bed design... I have a bed design and i need to do a stress analysis of the top bunk under a 90kg load. I will be designing it from 20mm thick plywood but i need to work out whether this is thick enough to support the load and also determine the width of the leg supports...
