For experimental and numerical investigation of the repaired pipeline prototype, the small-scale vessel model was produced. At the first stage of the experiment, the deformed state of the vessel with an artificially created surface defect was studied by the tensometry method.

Macroconcentration analysis i...

In the production of composite aircraft structures the function of technological three-dimensional tooling is very important. It is practically impossible to implement a single manufacturing process without it.
Nonuniform heating, during technological processes, of shells of molding equipment leads to shell deformation. This results in the poor accuracy of pieces manufactured. That's why the stress-deformed state of the molding shell should be analyzed. The paper solves a separate problem of thermoelasticity for a thin-walled shell of molding equipment. D...
