Abstract
The paper reports on a theoretical and an experimental
investigation into the collapse of dome cup ends under external
hydrostatic pressure. The dome cups were made from glass
reinforced plastic. The experimental results showed that some
of the dome cups were stronger than a similar but thicker
conventional dome cup. The theoretical analysis was via the
finite element method.
