POST FAILURE DEFLECTIONS OF CYLINDRICAL SHELLS UNDER DYNAMIC LATERAL LOADS

Abstract

The general work-energy approach for calculating plastic deformations is treated. Curves are presented for energy absorbed by cylindrical shells as a function of post failure deflection for both collapse and buckling failure. A set of curves is also given for predicting whether a shell will collapse or buckle first.
