The effect of imperfections on the buckling of thin walled cylindrical shells
A theoretical study of the effect of imperfections on the buckling load of a circular cylindrical shell under axial compression was carried out. The nonlinear shell equations of Donnell are solved in an approximate manner using the Potential Energy Theorem. The method of derivation and the resulting...
