Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of ship engineering structure design, and in particular relates to a structural stress calculation method considering the influence of eccentricity of ring rib reinforcement. Background Art
[0002] Currently, submersible structures typically utilize pressure-bearing, ring-stiffened cylindrical shells with annular stiffeners. This strength calculation method fails to consider the effects of eccentricity, resulting in identical results for both inner and outer rib structures. Furthermore, the stresses in the rib panels and at the rib roots cannot be calculated. This method relies on simplifying the ring-stiffened cylindrical shell into a complex curved elastic foundation beam rigidly fixed at both ends to elastic supports. When solving for the reaction forces exerted by the ring ribs on the shell, the stresses across the entire cross-section of the ring-stiffened ribs are assumed to be equal, and the entire cross-sectional area is assumed to be concentrated at a location coinciding with the shell plate centroid. This can lead to errors in actual results.
[0003] This method was improved in the design guidelines for a certain type of submersible structure. The submersible ring rib structure was decomposed into three parts: the rib web, the rib panel, and the cylindrical shell. The three parts were solved simultaneously to obtain the effect of the eccentricity of the ring-stiffened cylindrical shell rib on the stress of the cylindrical shell plate and rib. However, the equations of this method are complex to solve. In order to simplify the calculation in engineering applications, the stress coefficient determined by the parameters u and β was plotted. K1,K f The curve graph is calculated by looking up the graph. The graph is drawn based on the highest extreme value of the beam-column effect to consider the influence of the longitudinal force on the calculation results of the ring-stiffened cylindrical shell, that is, assuming that 2uγ=1. This assumption brings some errors; and human errors will occur when reading the curve values in the graph during the calculation process; in addition, the applicability to complex ring-stiffened structures is poor. Summary of the Invention
