Stresses in and General Instability of Monocoque Cylinders with Cutouts. 1 - Experimental Investigation of Cylinders with a Symmetric Cutout Subjected to Pure Bending

Abstract

Alclad cylinders with cutout in middle of compression side, extending 19 in. in longitudinal direction were tested in pure bending. Stress distribution deviates considerably from that of cylinders without cutouts. Cutout in monocoque cylinder makes general instability possible under a load smaller than buckling load of a complete cylinder. Compilation of data on buckling shape and buckling load of cylinders with cutouts of different sizes is given.
