Analysis and optimal design of pressurized, imperfect, anisotropic ring-stiffened cylinders
Development of an algorithm to perform the structural analysis and optimal sizing of buckling resistant, imperfect, anisotropic ring-stiffened cylinders subjected to axial compression, torsion, and internal pressure is presented. The structure is modeled as a branched shell. A nonlinear axisymmetric...
