title = "FEM analysis for composite cylindrical pressure vessels",
abstract = "In this study, the finite element analysis for fiber composite cylindrical pressure vessels is performed to investigate the mechanical behaviors such as static strengths and natural frequencies. The composite vessels are composed of the hoop layer, helical layer, and metallic liner in the thickness direction. The general-purpose finite element software ANSYS is used and the layer shell element is adopted. In the analysis, the dome shapes are represented by modified ellipses, and the effects of the surrounding temperature and the fiber slippage tendency are also taken into account. The numerical results show that the static failure index is affected by the dome shape and layer thickness, and the natural frequency is affected by the opening radius, layer thickness, and aspect ratio of the cylindrical body.",
