Nonlinear Buckling Analysis of Shallow Spherical Shell under Uniform Pressure and Temperature Field

Abstract:

Shallow spherical shell is an important kind of sensor elastic element. Because of the particular metal material texture, it can work under high temperature field. The nonlinear buckling problems of shallow spherical shell in load and temperature filed are very important. In this paper, nonlinear buckling of shallow spherical shell under uniform pressure and temperature field in simply supported boundary conditions is studied by the modified iteration method, and the analytic formulas for determining the critical buckling load are obtained. The effect of temperature field on critical buckling load and critical geometrical parameter are discussed.
