| The application of these simplificative hypotheses is useful at preliminary design stages, allowing a higher number of simulations for the search of an optimum design to be carried out. |
| Firstly, the explicit formulation of the shear flow due to shear forces and torsion is derived, noting the simplificative hypothesis adopted. |
| The comparison between numerical and experimental data shows that, in most cases, the simplificative hypotheses lead to quite acceptable results. |
| Several simplificative hypotheses are typically used in the simulations for time saving considerations, some of which have been explored in this work. |
| The purpose of this document is to find an analytical solution for the gyrokinetic equation under specific, simplificative hypotheses. |
| Experimental validations have been performed to check the influence of the simplificative hypotheses on the residual stress and displacement fields. |
