Ap. Beena et al., DESTRUCTIVE TESTS OF 15CDV6 STEEL ROCKET MOTOR CASES AND THEIR APPLICATION TO LIGHTWEIGHT DESIGN, International journal of pressure vessels and piping, 62(3), 1995, pp. 313-320
Experimental stress investigations are carried out on the burst tests
of rocket motor cases made of 15CDV6 steel. The biaxial ultimate stren
gth of the motor cases is evaluated. The feasibility of using the biax
ial strength as the basis of design is examined.
