Thanks for the replies.
There is no internal pressure present. The assembled cylinder will serve as a torque-tube and therefore only needs to be able to resist the torsion applied to it. There may be marginal deformations (80 mrad) within the tube, however accuracy is very important.
Hello guys,
I´m currently trying to analyse the strength of a bolted joint between two halves of a cylinder. The cylinder is subjected to torque on one end and fixed on the other end.
The top and bottom halves of the cylinder are connected by means of a flange and bolted connection as shown in...
