If the maximum hoop stress permitted on the inside wall of


Question - An external pressure of 10 MN/m2 is applied to a thick cylinder of internal diameter 160 mm and external diameter 320 mm. If the maximum hoop stress permitted on the inside wall of the cylinder is limited to 30 MN/m2, what maximum internal pressure can be applied assuming the cylinder has closed ends? What will be the change in outside diameter when this pressure is applied? E = 207 GN/m2, v = 0.29.
