Deformation of a Circular Elastic Tube between Two Parallel Bars: Quasi-Analytical Geometrical Ring Models
Several engineering problems are confronted with elastic tubes. In the current work, homothetic quasi-analytical geometrical ring models, ellipse, stadium, and peanut, are formulated allowing a computationally low cost ring shape estimation as a function of a single parameter, that is, the pinching...
