Wrinkling of pressurized elastic shells.
We study the formation of localized structures formed by the point loading of an internally pressurized elastic shell. While unpressurized shells (such as a ping-pong ball) buckle into polygonal structures, we show that pressurized shells are subject to a wrinkling instability. We study wrinkling in depth, presenting scaling laws for the critical indentation at which wrinkling occurs and the nu...
متن کاملBuckling of Spherical Shells Revisited
A study is presented of the post-buckling behavior and imperfection-sensitivity of complete spherical shells subject to uniform external pressure. The study builds on and extends the major contribution to spherical shell buckling by W.T. Koiter in the 1960’s. Numerical results are presented for the axisymmetric large deflection behavior of perfect spheres followed by an extensive analysis of th...
متن کاملBuckling Analysis of Concrete Spherical Shells
In some simple two-dimensional structures it is sufficient to determine only the lowest value of the load at which buckling commences. However, in the case of shells, it may be also necessary to investigate the postbuckling behavior because it has an important bearing on the magnitude of the failure load. The importance of the postbuckling behavior, which the small deflection theory of buckling...
متن کاملAxisymmetric Buckling of a Spherical Shell Embedded in an Elastic Medium under Uniaxial Stress at Infinity
The problem of a thin spherical linearly-elastic shell, perfectly bonded to an infinite linearly-elastic medium is considered. A constant axisymmetric stress field is applied at infinity in the matrix, and the displacement and stress fields in the shell and matrix are evaluated by means of harmonic potential functions. In order to examine the stability of this solution, the buckling problem of ...
متن کاملThe Geometric Role of Precisely Engineered Imperfections on the Critical Buckling Load of Spherical Elastic Shells
We study the effect of a dimple-like geometric imperfection on the critical buckling load of spherical elastic shells under pressure loading. This investigation combines precision experiments, finite element modeling and numerical solutions of a reduced shell theory, all of which are found to be in excellent quantitative agreement. In the experiments, the geometry and magnitude of the defect ca...
