RESPONSE OF SIMPLIFIED ICBM-TYPE STRUCTURES TO IMPULSIVE LOADING. VOLUME II. DYNAMIC BUCKLING OF RINGS, PLATES, AND CYLINDRICAL SHELLS UNDER IMPULSIVE LOADING.

Abstract

Structural response of reentry-vehicle-type structures to suddenly applied surface loads, body loads, and combined surface and body loads is investigated. Volume I contains a review of simulation requirements and methods for structural response, theoretical and experimental structural response investigations for body loads and combined surface and body loads, and a method for ABM warhead selection for observable structural kill. Volume II contains five structural response investigations involving dynamic buckling of rings, plates, and cylindrical shells under surface loads. (Author)
