Journal ArticleDOI
Pure Bending, Stretching, and Twisting of Anisotropic Cylindrical Shells
Eric Reissner,W. T. Tsai +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered the problem of determining stresses and deformations in elastic thin-walled, prismatical beams, subject to axial end forces and end bending and twisting moments, within the range of applicability of linear theory.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the Determination of the Centers of Twist and of Shear for Cylindrical Shell Beams
Eric Reissner,W. T. Tsai +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed new definitions for the centers of twist and of shear, in terms of influence coefficients for tip-loaded cantilever beams, applied in conjunction with a minimum complementary energy method for the approximate determination of the influence coefficients of the problem of thin-walled open and closed cross-section beams, with the possibility of a continuous transition from closed cross section to open cross section.
