...Abubakr E. S. Musa; Madyan A. Al-Shugaa; Husain J. Al-Gahtani The buckling stress of axially compressed circular cylindrical shells (CCSs) is highly sensitive to imperfections. Perfect CCSs are an idealization unattainable in reality. In practice, imperfections are always present and significantly...

... shell under mechanical loads in three cases. Porous toroidal shell segments subjected to lateral pressure, axial compression, and hydrostatic pressure loads are analytically analyzed. Closed-form solutions are expressed for the elastic buckling behavior of the convex and concave porous toroidal shell...

... data were obtained for: (i) two cones subjected to axial compression, (ii) two cones subjected to external pressure, and (iii) the remaining two models subjected to combined action of external pressure and axial compression. Apart from axisymmetric modeling of tested cones, true geometry with true wall...
