2. Derive the formula for longitudinal and hoop stresses in thin cylinders.
Same as 1 (a) and 1 (b)
3. Derive the formula for finding the change in dimension of a thin cylindrical shell due
to an internal pressure.
Changes in dimensions in thin cylinders are of three types.
(a) Change in length
(b) Change in diameter
(c) Change in Internal Volume
(a) Change in length
The change in length of the cylinder may be determined from the longitudinal strain,
i.e. neglecting the radial stress. Longitudinal strain = (1/E)(
