Prex,
U are right! after a certain limit of loading, the behavior of the beam tends to become non-linear, that's the point where the beam starts to 'wrinkle'(total non-linear behavior) . Though all that can be obtained mathematically, modelling it numerically is being a challenge! Your response...
Hello,
I have designed a mathematical model (theoritically) for an inflatable beam which comprises of internal pressure 4.5 Psi. One side of the beam is hinged and the other is simply supported. The specifics of the beam are:
Length : 1820mm
Diameter: 430mm
Thickness: 25mm
Internal Pressure:4.5...
