This paper starts out by recalling a constitutive equation of no-tension materials that accounts for thermal dilatation and the temperature dependence of the material parameters. Subsequently, a numerical method is presented for solving, via the finite element method, equilibrium problems of no-tension solids subjected to thermal loads. Finally, three examples are solved and discussed: a spherical container subjected to two uniform radial pressures and a steady temperature distribution, a masonry arch subjected to a uniform temperature distribution and a converter used in the steel and iron industry.

Abstract
This paper starts out by recalling a constitutive equation of no-tension materials that accounts for thermal dilatation and the temperature dependence of the material parameters. Subsequently, a numerical method is presented for solving, via the finite element method, equilibrium problems of no-tension solids subjected to thermal loads. Finally, three examples are solved and discussed: a spherical container subjected to two uniform radial pressures and a steady temperature distribution, a masonry arch subjected to a uniform temperature distribution and a converter used in the steel and iron industry.File in questo prodotto:
