Introduction
This problem demonstrates the ability to model pressure and thermal loading for composite laminated material. A
thick cylinder is loaded with both pressure and a temperature increase. Stresses are calculated and compared to a
reference solution.
Requested Solutions
The Hoop stress at the inner and outer cylinders is calculated under pressure loading and under both pressure loading
and thermal loading in MD Nastran. This test is recommended by the National Agency for Finite Element Methods
and Standards (U.K.): Test R0031/2 from NAFEMS publication R0031, “Composites Benchmarks”, February 1995
FEM Solution
A numerical solution has been obtained with MD Nastran’s SOL 400 for the configuration shown in Figure 7-1. The
cylinder consists of two layers with layer thickness and orientation as shown in Figure 7-1. The axial displacement is
set to zero at z = 0 . Only one eighth of the model is analyzed with the appropriate symmetry boundary conditions.
The two layers are modeled using the PCOMP entry, where the thickness of both layers is 2 mm

Each lamina is modeled as one layer in the composite. The inner cylinder (layer 1) is isotropic and the outer cylinder
(layer 2) is orthotropic. The material properties for the inner cylinder are
E = 210GPA ,  = 0.3 ,  = 2.0  10 – 5  C

and for the outer cylinder are

E 1 = 130GPa  12 = 0.25 G 12 = 10GPa  11 = 3.0  10 – 6  C
E 2 = 5GPa  13 = 0.25 G 13 = 10GPa  22 = 2.0  10 – 5  C
E 3 = 5GPa  23 = 0 G 23 = 5GPa  33 = 2.0  10 – 5  C
and are entered using the MAT1 and MAT8 entry, respectively.
Two types of shell elements are analyzed: the CQUAD4 default and the CQUAD4 suitable for large deformations. The
latter is activated using the PSHLN1 entry.

+ C4 DCT L
The analysis is performed in two analyses steps. In the first step, a uniform pressure of 200MPa is applied on the
inside of the cylinder. In the second step, both this pressure and a temperature rise of 130C is applied.
Table 7-1 compares the Hoop stress in the inner and outer cylinders for the two examples for the two analyses steps
with the reference solution at r = 24mm and r = 26mm . The NAFEMS Hoop stress at r = 23mm and
r = 25mm are averaged to compare at r = 24mm for the inner cylinder and similar for r = 26mm for the outer
cylinder.
