A parametric investigation into the membrane stresses of hydrostatically loaded circular and elliptic toroidal shells

This study explores the membrane stresses of hydrostatically loaded elliptical and circular toroidal tanks. Equations are derived, using the membrane theory of shells, to obtain equations which can accurately describe the meridional and hoop stress behaviour at locations sufficiently far away from a...
