The Buckling of Stiffened and Unstiffened Shell Structures

Abstract

Theoretical and experimental research on the buckling of stiffened and unstiffened cylindrical and conical shells, and arches and rings is summarized. The topics of earlier work are outlined and the more recent topics are summarized. These include: the influence of in-plane boundary conditions for stringer and ring-stiffened cylindrical shells; extensive tests on integrally stringer-stiffened and ring-stiffened cylindrical shells under axial compression; thermal buckling of cylindrical shells; a collocation method for buckling analysis of elastically restrained conical shells; buckling of cylindrical panels under non-uniform axial compression; and instability of closely ring-stiffened conical shells.
