Question
A cylindrical pressure vessel having a radius r = 14 in. and wall thickness t = 0.625 in. is subjected to internal
pressure p = 375 psi. In addition, a torque T = 90 kip-ft acts at each end of the cylinder (see figure). (Assume that the
structures behave linearly elastically and that the stresses caused by two or more loads may be superimposed to obtain the
resultant stresses acting at a point. Consider both in-plane and out-of-plane shear stresses unless otherwise specified.)
