1.0 Abstract

To examine the stress and strain in a thin walled cylinder, students conduct the experiment by using thin cylinder apparatus (SM1007). The experiment clearly shows the principles, theories and analytical techniques and does help the student in studies.

By using SM1007, student will be able to measure the strains of the cylinder in 2 ends condition. Open ends and closed ends. The difference between opened ends and closed ends is that, open ends does not have axial load and no direct axial stress, meanwhile in a closed ends there is axial load and axial stress.

As the result of the experiment, the value of circumferential stress both under open condition and closed condition has been obtained. Analysis has been made and so the calculation. From the data collected in opened ends condition the values of Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio are calculated.
