    Redirected stresses on steel rings

    Problem: 1. Apply load to central ring 2. Deformation/ compressive failure of central ring which then applies load to outer ring and inner ring

    Redirected stresses on steel rings

    Real life application: lantern ring component within a packing setup TWPV idea? This is due to the load that could potentiall be aplpied to the ineer wall of the outer cylinder. Incorrect assumption? Failure modes: Central ring - Delamination, yield, cold flow, shear, transverse shear...

    Redirected stresses on steel rings

    Here is a rough MSWord sktch to show the relationship of the cylinders. There is deformation of the intermediate cylinder depending on material. @dhengr: What questions do you have on the setup...

    Redirected stresses on steel rings

    With no radial deformation of the center ring, i would agree. That is not the assumption here though. There are metallics, composites, and/or thermoplastics. Thanks

    Redirected stresses on steel rings

    I will attach a sketch this afternoon when i get home. In the mean time, picture a plunger that is shaped like a cylinder with dimensions of: Plunger: 4.950" OD; 4.050" ID Thanks

    Redirected stresses on steel rings

    This should be easy but my brain is locked. Ok, to set the stage picture three cylinders that are nested inside one another...for instance: Cyl A: Ø5.000" x Ø6.500" x 3" Cyl B: Ø4.995" x Ø4.006" x 2" Cyl C: Ø3.000" x Ø4.000" x 3" Now I nest all three of these cylinders, put a plunger on Cyl...
