Dynamic Buckling of Thin Elastic Shells.

Abstract

The report summarizes five studies in the statics and dynamics of thin elastic shells of cylindrical, spherical, and conical shape. Various types of time-dependent loads are considered and the responses of the shells investigated by a variety of techniques. Agreement of theory with available experimental evidence is discussed where possible. (Author)
