Buckling of Electroformed Conical Shells under Hydrostatic Pressure
Abstract
The report describes a series of tests made on the buckling of high quality. electroformed conical shells under hydrostatic pressure. The thriteen shells shells used were all of high taper ratio, ten having a taper ration of0. 75 and 3 are used were all high taper ratio, ten having a taper ratio of 0.75 and 3 are of 0.669. The range of average radius to wall thickness covered was from 600-1200. The method of testing is discussed in detail, and the results obtained are compared with the linear theories of Seide and Singer.
