Abstract
The paper reports on a theoretical and an experimental
investigation into the vibration and buckling of an hemi-ellipsoidal
tube-stiffened dome under external water pressure.
The theoretical analyses were via the finite element method.
where both the fluid and the structure were modelled with finite
elements. The dome was modelled with a varying meridional
curvature element and with eight displacement degrees of freedom
and the water was modelled by solid annular elements where each
element had eight pressure degrees of freedom. Comparison was
good between experiment and theory.
