Buckling and post buckling of cylindrical shells under hydrostatic pressure is regarded as important issue in structure of submarines. These cylindrical shells have variable thickness due to construction process which effected by pressure of buckling and its destruction. In this paper, effects of changing thickness on buckling and destruction pressure under external hydrostatic pressure of a sh...

In this paper, the exact analytical and numerical solutions for rotating variable-thickness annular disk are presented. The inner and outer edges of the rotating variable-thickness annular disk are considered to have free boundary conditions. Two different annular disks for the radially varying thickness are given. The numerical Runge-Kutta solution as well as the exact analytical solution is a...

One way to increase the overall stiffness of a shell structure is design shells with variable thickness. The effect thickness change on stability flexible shallow panels has been little studied due complexity solving such non-linear problems. Geometrically nonlinear deformation, buckling and postbuckling behavior thin elastic linearly subjected uniform normal pressure investigated. axisymmetric...
