Buckling of Shells Proceedings of a State-of-the-Art Colloquium, Universität Stuttgart, Germany, May 6–7, 1982 / edited by Ekkehard Ramm.

Thin shells are very popular structures in many different branches of engineering. There are the domes, water and cooling towers, the contain­ ments in civil engineering, the pressure vessels and pipes in mechanical and nuclear engineering, storage tanks and platform components in marine and offshor...
