Nonlinear deformations of a cylindrical pipe with pre-stressed thin coatings

The paper presents an exact solution for the problem of large deformations of torsion, axial tension–compression, and radial expansion or shrinkage of an elastic hollow circular cylinder equipped with pre-stressed elastic coatings. Surface coatings are modeled using the six-parameter nonlinear shell theory. The constitutive material of the cylinder is described by a three-dimensional nonlinear model of the isotropic incompressible body of the general form. Special boundary conditions describe the interaction of this material with thin coatings on the inner and outer surface of the pipe. Based on the solution obtained, numerical calculations were performed on the effect of preliminary stresses in coatings on the stress–strain state of a cylindrical pipe.
