What is Design Stress?
Design stress refers to the maximum allowable stress that a material or structure can withstand under certain design conditions without experiencing deformation or failure. It is a key factor in engineering design, as it ensures that a structure or component will be able to function safely and effectively under anticipated loading conditions. Design stress is typically determined through various types of analysis, including theoretical calculations, computer simulations, and physical testing. The specific factors that are taken into account when determining design stress include the type of material used, the geometry and shape of the structure, the anticipated loads and forces that will be applied, and the operating environment in which the structure will be used.
How to Calculate Stress due to Longitudinal Bending at Mid-Span?
Stress due to Longitudinal Bending at Mid-Span calculator uses Stress due to Longitudinal Bending at Mid-Span = Bending Moment at Centre of Vessel Span/(pi*(Shell Radius)^(2)*Shell Thickness) to calculate the Stress due to Longitudinal Bending at Mid-Span, Stress due to Longitudinal Bending at Mid-Span refers to the maximum tensile and compressive stresses experienced by a structural member at the point of maximum bending moment, which is typically located at the center of the span. Stress due to Longitudinal Bending at Mid-Span is denoted by f3 symbol.
