Computer Aided Design Of Fiber Reinforced Plastic Tanks And Vessels

CADFRP is an improved computer program to assist in the design and analysis of FRP vessels and piping. It enables designers and engineers to easily and quickly perform the many calculations involved in the determination of stress and strain values in the individual layers of FRP vessels and pipes. The capability to determine critical pressures for both the shells and heads, and critical thickness for each head type has also been incorporated. The program is based on laminate theory, as presented in Dr. Hoa's book, Analysis for Design of Fiber Reinforced Plastic Vessels and Pipings.
