Research on General and Axisymmetric Ellipsoidal Shells Used as Domes, Pressure Vessels, and Tanks

TL;DR: The principal advances in the design and construction, as well as the static, vibrational, and buckling analysis of thin-walled structures and buildings in the shape of general and axisymmetric ellipsoidal shells are summarized in this article.

Stress-Strength Interference Method

TL;DR: The stress—strength interference method is one of the oldest methods of structural reliability analysis and continues to be a popular method of reliability analysis among practicing engineers in many industries because of its simplicity, ease, and economy.

Design Variation Simulation of Thick-Walled Cylinders

TL;DR: In this article, the Von Mises-distortion energy yield theory is used to predict elastic, plastic and residual stresses in thick-walled cylinders, and the use of autofrettage to induce favorable compressive stresses at the inner bore, thereby improving the margin of safety and overall reliability, is also presented.
