ABSTRACT:
The response to stress delivered by a non-isochoric hollow cylinder is
critical to its future life and integrity. The design of cylinders must
emphasize durability; therefore, the knowledge of the yield stress of the
constituent material is essential. The stress component of a pressurized
compressible circular cylinder made of non-linearly elastic material was
considered here and the yield stress was determined.
