Stresses Induced in Fiber-Reinforced Tubes Due to Changes in Temperature and Moisture

摘要: An orthotropic hygrothermal stress solution has been formulated for an infinitely long fiber-reinforced tube of any number plies material, with arbitrary orientation each the plies. The allows determination stresses when is subjected to changes in temperature and moisture content. In formulation, a gradient through thickness taken into account such that formulation can be applied inside not same as outside. This set equations, together prescribed boundary conditions, solved numerically. It shown induced due absorbed from environment are significant.
