Some Problems for Dynamic Computation of Closed Cylindrical Shell Due to Axial impact Load

The present paper treats some of the problems for dynamic computation of closed cylindrical shell due to an axial impact load, including the calculations of the dynamic stresses and the problems of stability. It analyses the changes of the momen tums and the energy in the impact process, takes into account the effect of the mass of the striking object and the system of the closed cylindrical shell to be struck, turns the distributed mass of the total cylindrical shell into an "equivalent mass" being concentrated on only at one end of the shell by using the way of reduced mass, and accordingly derives the dynamic factor of the closed cylindrical shell under the axial impact load, hence resolves the questions of calculation of the dynamic stresses in the loaded case mentioned above and found out the critical loading.
