<strong>The</strong> stress <strong>and</strong> forces in pipes in the general case. Let us<br />

examine three pipes.<br />

<strong>The</strong> following are given: al 1 F 1 Atl; a 2 F 2 At 2 ; a 3 F 3 At 3 . Find<br />

a1, 02, a3.<br />

<strong>The</strong> basic initial<br />

reduces to the two equations:<br />

conditions for setting up a system <strong>of</strong> equations<br />

or, in simpler form,<br />

j Pj=0.<br />

Let us write expressions for thermal t <strong>and</strong> elastic eyi strains<br />

in the pipes. All strains <strong>and</strong> elastic forces are considered positive,<br />

i.e., oriented on the x-axis (Fig. 4.11). <strong>The</strong> actual sign <strong>of</strong> the<br />

forces <strong>and</strong> strains will be apparent after solving the system <strong>of</strong><br />

equations.<br />

<strong>The</strong>rmal <strong>and</strong> elastic strains are<br />
