Buckling of Thin Shells: Recent Advances and Trends

Abstract

This paper provides a review of recent research advances and trends in the area of thin shell buckling. Only the more important and interesting aspects of recent research, judged from a personal view point, are discussed. In particular, the following topics are given emphasis: (a) imperfections in real structures and their influence; (b) buckling of shells under local/non-uniform loads and localized compressive stresses; and (c) the use of computer buckling analysis in the stability design of complex thin shell structures.

Asymptotic modeling of technical systems with technological deviations

“…Провести их квалифицированный обзор в рамках данной статьи не представляется воз-можным, поскольку требует отдельного исследования. Обзор более 400 работ по этой проблеме содержится в [3,4]. Основной вывод обзора таков: «Несмотря на об-ширные исследования в течение многих десятилетий, наши знания о многих проблемах выпучивания обо-лочек все еще очень ограничены.…”

“…Следует отметить, что вопросам оптимизации аналоговых интерфейсов в отечествен-ной литературе уделяется недостаточное внимание [2], особенно в связи с современной тенденцией ин-теллектуализации аналоговых интерфейсов [3], что…”

Buckling and post-buckling behaviour of shallow – nearly flat cylindrical panels under axial compression

“…Results of the theoretical, numerical and experimental investigations were elaborated in many papers and monographs, selected, for example, in chronological order: Timoshenko and Gere [1], Hutchinson and Koiter [2], Budiansky [3], Brush and Almorth [4], Donnell [5], Grigoluk and Kabanov [6], Yamaki [7], Bushnell [8], Simitses [9], Bažant and Cedolin [10], Hunt and Neto [11], Teng [12], Lord et al [13], Ventsel and Krauthammer [14], Rotter [15], Luong and Tri [16]. The problem of a lower estimation of critical stress of axially compressed shallow cylindrical panels was presented by Magnucki [17].…”
