SCPV is a family of three macro enabled Excel workbooks for analysis of long cylindrical pressure vessels with flat endcaps subjected to external hydrostatic pressure. CPVanalysis.xlsm does stress and stability analyses. It plots stresses, deflections and the equilibrium path for imperfect circular cylinders showing the onset of yielding and limit points in relation to elastic and inelastic bifurcation buckling pressures. Two types of initial geometric imperfections, outer diameter...

...d. Three-layer sandwich-wall with isotropic outer layers and orthotropic core. Stress-strain solutions for all constructions are based on thick-wall three-dimensional elastic theory. Elastic Monocoque Instability pressure is calculated. Instructions on using each worksheet are given therein. 2. Technical notes outlining the underlying theory and discussing the above four types of PVs.

Coexlam is a VBA Excel application that performs composite laminate analysis. Laminate theory is used with several strength criteria: maximal stress, maximal strain, Tsaï-Hill and Tasï-Wu. A help including a Getting Started part is now available in the application. The users can add their own formulas or application, an example is provided with a tank under pressure. Several load cases can be calculated in one time in the Print sheet.
