Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Consider a cylindrical tank that holds liquid. If the radius and height of the tank are doubled, how does this change the pressure and resulting forces acting on the surfaces?

💡 Hint: Analyze the relationships between dimensions and how they influence the pressure.

Challenge 2 Hard

In a cylindrical element subjected to external loading conditions, derive how changing the angle θ influences tangential stresses.

💡 Hint: Think about how theta relates to radial dimensions in your calculations.
