Calculating Strain Energy of Circular Clamped Plate

AI Thread Summary
To calculate the strain energy of a symmetrical circular clamped plate using equilibrium equations in polar coordinates, specific methods are required. A recommended resource for this calculation is "Theory of Plates and Shells" by Timoshenko, which is commonly available in engineering libraries. This text provides foundational principles and methodologies relevant to the topic. Utilizing established literature can enhance understanding and accuracy in calculations. Accessing these resources is crucial for effective analysis.

Ack..lol. I would recommend getting a copy of "Theory of Plates and Shells" by Timoshenko. Any egr. library should have it.
 
Hi all, I have a question. So from the derivation of the Isentropic process relationship PV^gamma = constant, there is a step dW = PdV, which can only be said for quasi-equilibrium (or reversible) processes. As such I believe PV^gamma = constant (and the family of equations) should not be applicable to just adiabatic processes? Ie, it should be applicable only for adiabatic + reversible = isentropic processes? However, I've seen couple of online notes/books, and...
I have an engine that uses a dry sump oiling system. The oil collection pan has three AN fittings to use for scavenging. Two of the fittings are approximately on the same level, the third is about 1/2 to 3/4 inch higher than the other two. The system ran for years with no problem using a three stage pump (one pressure and two scavenge stages). The two scavenge stages were connected at times to any two of the three AN fittings on the tank. Recently I tried an upgrade to a four stage pump...
