Abstract:
An analysis is made of the stresses occurring in stringer
reinforced cylinders due to the restraining action of the frames.
Graphs are presented showing the effect of variation in frame pitch
and stiffness, on the bending moment and shear force in the skins,
and the hoop stress in the skins between frames. The results are
used to show how the optimum structural geometry can be chosen for
any given stress ratios.
