Abstract:

This paper presents an investigation of a cylinder with material attributes that vary arbitrarily in the radial direction under non-uniformly distributed normal and tangential pressures. A stress and displacement solution method for plane strain on a radial heterogeneous cylinder with inner and outer surfaces subjected to uneven normal and tangential pressures under two types of contact conditions (i.e., complete contact and smooth contact) is proposed based on the theory of elastic mechanics. In addition, a group of linear equations is derived, through which the analytical solution of a radial heterogeneous cylinder under a non-uniform load can be obtained. The validity of the analytical solution is verified by comparing it with the results of a numerical simulation. This research shows that the solution is more convenient and universal than traditional methods and can provide a theoretical basis for the stress state analysis, stability evaluation, and structure design of heterogeneous cylindrical structures, all of which have great significance in practical engineering.
