A thin-walled cylindrical pressure vessel has mean wall thickness of t and nominal radius of r. The Poisson’s ratio of the wall material is 1/3. When it was subjected to some internal pressure, its nominal perimeter in the cylindrical portion increased by 0.1% and the corresponding wall thickness became t̅. The corresponding change in the wall thickness of the cylindrical portion, i.e. 100 × ( − t)/t, is ________% (round off to 3 decimal places).

A cylindrical container of radius $$R=1$$m, wall thickness $$1$$mm is filled with water upto a depth of $$2$$m and suspended along with its upper rim. The density of water is $$1000$$kg/m3 and acceleration due to gravity is $$10$$ m/s2. The self weight of the cylinder is negligible. The formula for hoop stress in a thin walled cylinder can be used at all points along the height of the cylindrical container. GATE ME 2008 Strength of Materials - Thin Cylinders Question 6 English
