Answer / karthick
normally there are two types of stresses in a long
cylindrical vessel (say boiler).they are cricumferential
stress or hoop's stress and longitudinal stress.the stress
which acts along the circumference of the cylinder is
called hoop's stress.

Answer / k. harindra kumar
it is the stress developed in cylindrical and hemisperical
bodies circumfrecially wer it depends on pressure and
geomenty, this stress is more in cylindrical objects

Answer / bn
Usually the largest stress when a circular vessel or pipe
is pressurised inside or outside.
There are 3 stresses.
Radial, equal to the applied pressure at the surface.
Longitudinal, along the length of the pipe/vessel, usually
constant across the section and usually small.
Hoop, or circumferential, the largest usually and the one
used for design calculations. If you get an acceptable
hoop stress, the other 2 will normally be inconsequential.

Answer / vijay patel
Hoop stress` is mechanical stress defined for rotationally-symmetric objects being the result of forces acting circumferentially (perpendicular both to the axis and to the radius of the object). Along with axial stress and `radial stress`, it is a component of the stress tensor in cylindrical coordinates. It is usually useful to decompose any force applied to an object with rotational symmetry into components parallel to the cylindrical coordin...

Answer / manish yadav
Hoop stress is the circumferential loading of a cylindrical mechanical body.It is the circumferential stress in a cylindrically shaped part caused by internal or external pressure.
