Abstract
The shakedown theory and basic relations to develop an upper bound tec hnique for the analysis of thin axisymmetric shells has been represent ed in Part I of this paper. Here numerical solutions consisting of the shakedown or limit load and the corresponding collapse mechanism are compared with other numerical and analytical solutions for a range of shell geometries.
