Abstract:

This paper deals with the analysis of the sixth elementary Volterra's distortion for a circular hollow, homogeneous, elastic, isotropic cylinder. More precisely, the specific load connected to the sixth distortion is proved to be equivalent (in Saint Venant's theory) to a right combined compressive and bending stress and to a right combined tensile and bending stress. Our results have been applied to a material made up of steel to compare the obtained numerical results with Volterra's predictions: the values calculated through Saint Venant's theory are more strictly related to those calculated by Volterra when the cylinder thickness tends to zero.
