Laminated pressurized elastic tube and its homogenization
Hans Bufler · Archives of Mechanics · 1999
IH THIS PAPER, the state of stress and deformation of a pressurized tube consisting of various elastic isotropic or transversely isotropic layers is evaluated. Especially a periodically laminated tube made of many thin layers is analysed by means of a homogenization process, and closed-form solutions are obtained. The results are illustrated by means of a numerical example.
