Abstract

This chapter presents a number of analytical solutions for thermal stresses in different shell geometries. Thermal stresses in cylindrical, spherical, and conical shells under simple thermal loads are derived by analytical methods. The analytical solution methods for thermal or mechanical stresses for different shells are given in literature. Their discussion, however, in a classical book on the shell theory may not be quite justified.
