Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Buckling of Shallow Spherical Shells Under External Pressure
The pressure to which the shell jumps is called the final buckling load. The purpose of this paper is to determine the values of por for various shell configurations. A series of experiments have been conducted by Kaplan and Fung (1) on clamped, shallow, Spherical shells under uniform external pressure. Not only were the initial and final buckling loads determined, but measurements were made of the vertical deflections at various points of the shell for several different values of the pressure.
