Among 150, in terms of opening reinforcement, what is the difference between the terms cylinder, housing, and tubular body? Is it related to the presence of a head? If that’s the case, should I be careful with the openings?
Can that analysis method be applied for reinforcing openings in end caps? 150 states that \"the stress analysis method derived from the thin-shell theory is used for the reinforcement design of openings in cylinders with radial nozzles under internal pressure.\" ”
The shell consists of a cylinder and a head. The analysis method specifies the scope of application: it is used for the opening reinforcement design of cylinders with radial nozzles under internal pressure. It should not be confused with concepts.
I had considered this issue before as well; in my understanding, the shell should include the head, while a cylinder refers to a vessel made up of several tube sections, and a tube refers to a single cylinder? The last two are uncertain; I’m not sure if they’re reversed: lol
