Axial and lateral stiffness of spherical self-balancing fiber reinforced rubber pipes under internal pressure

Fiber reinforced rubber pipes are widely used to transport fluid at locations requiring flexible connections in pipeline systems. The spherical self-balancing fiber reinforced rubber pipes with low stiffness are drawing attention because of their vibration suppression performance under high internal...

Axial and lateral stiffness of spherical self-balancing fiber reinforced rubber pipes under internal pressure
description Fiber reinforced rubber pipes are widely used to transport fluid at locations requiring flexible connections in pipeline systems. The spherical self-balancing fiber reinforced rubber pipes with low stiffness are drawing attention because of their vibration suppression performance under high internal pressure. In this paper, a theoretical model is proposed to calculate the axial stiffness and lateral stiffness of spherical self-balancing fiber reinforced rubber pipes. The inhomogeneous anisotropy of the reinforced layer and the nonlinear stress-strain relationship of the reinforced fiber are considered in the model. The accuracy of the model is verified by experimental results. Theoretical calculation finds that both the axial and lateral stiffness are influenced significantly by the key structural parameters of the pipe (the axial length, the circumferential radius at the end, the meridional radius, and the initial winding angle). The stiffness can be reduced remarkably with optimal meridional radius and initial winding angle, without any side effect on the self-balance of the pipe. The investigation methods and results presented in this paper will provide guidance for design of fiber reinforced rubber pipes in the future.
