2. A thin-walled cylindrical pressure vessel, which has an internal diameter d = 840 mm, is designed to resist an internal pressure p = 7 MPa and a compressive load F = 600 KN that is applied on the two ends of the vessel (see Figure Q2). The allowable shear stress in the wall of the cylinder is 80 MPa. Determine the optimum thickness, t of the vessel? Cylindrical Vessel Figure O2 1
