STEADY THERMAL STRESS AND STRAIN RATES IN A CIRCULAR CYLINDER WITH NON-HOMOGENEOUS COMPRESSIBILITY SUBJECTED TO THERMAL LOAD
ABSTRACT
The non-homogeneity is assumed due to variation of modulus of compression. It has seen that in the presence of temperature, a cylinder made of non-homogeneous material k<0 (Non-homogeneity is less at internal surface than at outer surface) require high pressure to become fully plastic as is required for initial yielding and this pressure goes on increasing with the increases in temperature, showing that a cylinder made of non-homogeneous material k<0 is on the safer side of design. For homogeneous case, it has been observed that the circumferential stress has maximum value at the external surface of the cylinder made of incompressible material as compared to compressible material. For Homogeneous case, with effects of temperature reduces the stresses at the external surface of the cylinder in comparison to pressure effects only. Strain rates are found to be maximum at the internal surface of the cylinder made of compressible material and they decrease with the radius. With the introduction of temperature effect, the creep rates have higher values at the internal surface but lesser values at the external surface as compare to a cylinder subjected to pressure only.
