DEVELOPMENT OF DESIGN STRENGTH LEVELS FOR THE ELASTIC STABILITY OF MONOCOQUE CONES UNDER AXIAL COMPRESSION
Overview & Synopsis
Design relationships have been derived for the determination of elastic buckling strength levels for unpressurized monocoque truncated cones under axial compression. Theoretical implications have been considered in the establishment of a semi-empirical analysis leading to the development of probability based design expressions. Data from 170 tests by various investigators were statistically evaluated for the expected mean, 90%, and 99% probability strength levels. Dispersion of data was found to be slightly less than that of monocoque cylinders. Non-linear effects of radius to thickness ratio or strength deterioration with length to radius ratio were not discernible.
