ANALYSIS OF CYLINDRICAL SHELL STRUCTURE WITH VARYING PARAMETERS

Abstract: The shell structures are composed of a thin shell made of reinforced concrete without the use of internal columns giving an open interior. Most common shells used in industry are flat plates and domes but different shapes like cylindrical, parabolic or spherical section may also used. Sports or storage facilities buildings are common concrete shell structures. However, they can be difficult to design, as the exact shape required for stability of structure depends on the material used, the size of the shell, exterior or interior loading, and other oblique. So by varying the parameter of the shell, behaviour of the shell is also varying. Main goal of this paper is parametric analysis of the multiple cylindrical shell structures with different lengths. For analysis we took two different lengths of cylindrical shell and then, two parameters have been change first one is radius and second is thickness, on the basis of different radius and thickness for same chord width, length, and material of shell we will compare the behaviour of shell for different models.

Keywords: Multiple cylindrical shells, Analysis, Different Parameter.
