The elastic limit to be expected on the maximum stress theory canbe easily computed. At the inner surface we have -2?, Ge = ra 2 _ ri where 9^ is the circumferential fiber stress. The elastic limit of this steelwas about 60,000 lb. per sq. in. (4218 kg. per sq. cm.). Substituting thisvalue for 0^ gives 46,500 lb. per sq. in. (3269 kg. per sq. cm.) as the ex-pected elastic limit of a cylinder initially without
