THE BUCKLING OF STIFFENED AND UNSTIFFENED CONICAL AND CYLINDRICAL SHELLS

Abstract

Theoretical and experimental research on the buckling of stiffened and unstiffened conical and cylindrical shells, carried out over a period of 3 years, is summarized. The topics of earlier work are outlined and the more recent topics are summarized. These include: discreteness effect in stringer-stiffened shells and the effect of elastic restraint on panels and sub-shells; the influence of inplane boundary conditions for ring-stiffened cylindrical shells; extensive tests on stringer-stiffened cylindrical shells under axial compression and ring stiffened conical shells under torsion; and also thermal buckling of cylindrical shells.
