Bending of a Round Plate under Gas Pressure

Аннотация

The effect of the average excess pressure of the environment on the linear and nonlinear bending of a round plate is studied. Different values of the gas pressure on both surfaces of the plate form a transverse distributed load, consisting of a differential pressure and the interaction of the average pressure with the curvature of the middle surface. With a small ratio of the average pressure to the elastic modulus of the material and with a large relative thickness, the influence of the second component of the bending load is small. With a large ratio of the average pressure to the elastic modulus and a small relative thickness, this effect is significant.
