INVESTIGATION OF STRESS DISTRIBUTION AND STRENGTH CHARACTERISTICS OF LOAD MAGNIFICATION ANVILS FOR ULTRA HIGH PRESSURE APPARATUS
Abstract
Photoelastic studies were made of the stresses induced in conical frustums by uniform pressureAPPLIED TO THE SMALL BASES. One cone was investigated for uniform pressure applied to the small base and to a region of the conical surface adjacent to the small base. The data are reported in the form tau sub max/p where tau sub max is the principal shear stress at a point and p is the nominal uniform pressure applied to the cone base (axial force/base area). In addition, a room temperature test was performed on one cone to determine the fracture mode. The experimental method and results of these investigations are described and contain comparison with theory. (Author)
