Abstract

The linearized buckling problem is considered for an isotropic clamped-clamped cylindrical shell with an oblique end. A theoretical solution based on the Budiansky shell theory is developed, and numerical results are determined using the differential quadrature method. In formulating the solutions, the surface of the shell is developed onto a plane, and the resulting irregular domain is then mapped, using blending functions, onto a square parent domain. The analysis is carried out in the parent domain. Convergence, validation, and parametric studies are conducted for a uniform external pressure loading. Results determined are compared with finite element results. The paper ends with an appropriate set of conclusions.
