3. A cooling tower may be approximated by a one- sheet hyperboloid of revolution as shown in figure. The equation of its meridian is r = % Vo? +++ = where a and b are the parameters of the hyperbola. Determine the membrane forces, N, and N2, distribution over the depth of the cooling tower under its own weight. Assume that the tower is made of concrete and T=22 m, S=116 m, a=51.5 m, b=73.42 m, and h=0.2 m. T io .0 S Ri T=a 021 R2 S N N
