Tóm tắt

Experiments on the axial compression buckling of high-quality epoxy cylindrical shells with imposed dimpletype defects are described. Additionally, a technique for the manufacture of high-quality epoxy conical shells which buckle at loads approaching the classical critical load is presented. For both types of shells, prebuckling deformations have been monitored optically. The sizes of defects determined from the optical examination when applied in the space-frame approach to shell buckling have led to predicted knock-down factors which are remarkably consistent with measured knock-down factors (i.e., the ratio of actual collapse to classical critical load).
