The determination of the inelastic response of cylindrical shells under general impulsive loads is of relevance to marine structures such as submarines, in analyzing their slamming damages. The present study is concerned with the plastic response of a simply supported cylindrical shell under a general axisymmetric impulsive load. The impulsive load is assumed to impart an axisymmetric velocity to the shell, with a Gaussian distribution along the longitudinal axis of the shell. A simplified Tresca yield condition is used. The shell response is determined for various forms of impulses ranging from a concentrated impulse to a uniform impulse over the entire length of the shell. Conclusions about the influence of geometry of the shell and the spatial distribution of impulse on the plastic behavior of cylindrical shells are presented.

Abstract Tables are presented for the quick determination of the frequencies and shapes of modes of infinitely long thin cylindrical shells. To make the problem tractable, the shells are first treated as membranes without bending stiffness, and the bending effects are introduced subsequently as corrections. The underlying theory is based on the energy expressions for cylindrical shells. The tables cover the following range: lengths of longitudinal half wave L from 1 to 10 radii a; number n of circumferential waves from 0 to 6. The results apply for Poisson’s ratio ν = 0.30.

A finite-element procedure for the determination of buckling pressure of thin-walled cylindrical shells used in ocean structures is presented. The derivation of the elastic and geometric stiffness matrices is discussed in detail followed by a succinct description of the computer program developed by the authors during the course of this study for the determination of the buckling pressure. Particular attention is paid to the boundary conditions which strongly influence the buckling pressure. Applications involving the interstiffener buckling in submersible hulls and cylindrical shells with stepwise variation in wall thickness are considered and the results compared with the solutions and procedures available in the literature.

Thin-walled cylindrical shells are widely used in many industrial sectors as light structural elements. Determination of their buckling strength under various types of loading conditions is a crucial work for engineering design. Due to the needs of research of crashworthiness, dynamic buckling of cylindrical shells subjected to the strong axial impact becomes a frontier issue in recent years. The axial impact is a very complex dynamic process because of the coupling of multiple effects. In this paper, the buckling mechanism of cylindrical shells subjected to axial impact and the influences of boundary conditions, and energy absorption properties have been investigated by experiments.
