Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You have a thick-walled cylinder with an inner radius of 5 cm and a wall thickness of 2 cm. Given an internal pressure of 200 MPa, determine the radial stress at the inner radius.

๐Ÿ’ก Hint: Use the relationship from Lameโ€™s equations to derive answers at given pressures.

Question 2

Examine a design of a pressure vessel subjected to extreme conditions. Analyze how variations in radial stress might affect its ability to withstand operational failures.

๐Ÿ’ก Hint: Consider how engineers ensure structural integrity to prevent bursting.
