Ctf. Ross et Ga. Waterman, Inelastic instability of circular corrugated cylinders under external hydrostatic pressure, OCEAN ENG, 27(4), 2000, pp. 331-343
The paper presents an experimental study on six circular corrugated cylinde
rs which were tested to destruction under external hydrostatic pressure. Th
e results obtained from these vessels, together with the results obtained f
rom elsewhere, were used to provide a design chart. The design chart appear
s to be suitable for designing these vessels to guard against inelastic ins
tability. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
