Abstract

The elastoplastic state of thin cylindrical shells weakened by a curvilinear (circular) hole is analyzed considering finite deflections. The shells are made of an isotropic homogeneous material. The load is internal pressure of given intensity. The distributions of stresses (strains, displacements) along the hole boundary and in the zone of their concentration are studied. The results obtained are compared with solutions that account for physical (plastic strains) or geometrical (finite deflections) nonlinearity alone and with a numerical linear elastic solution. The stress-strain state around a circular hole is analyzed for different geometries in the case where both nonlinearities are taken into account
