Abstract

Experimental tests were carried out to destruction on three ring-stiffened thin-walled circular conical shells under uniform external pressure. The experiments have shown that for even small imperfections in the geometry of these vessels, there was a considerable loss of buckling resistance, especially for the less slender vessels.

A semi-empirical design chart is provided, which enables a plastic reduction factor to be determined; this plastic reduction factor can be used in conjunction with a finite element solution for perfect vessels, so that the inelastic buckling pressures of these imperfect vessels can be calculated.
