Abstract: Pressure vessels are closed structures containing liquids or gases under pressure. Familiar examples include fuel tanks, pipes, and pressurized cabins in aircraft and space vehicles. When ...

The study of buckling behavior and strength analysis in pressure vessels and shell structures is fundamental to ensuring the safety and operational reliability of critical engineering systems.

The Princeton University course on German thin-shell structures in fall 2012 that resulted in the exhibition "Evolution of German Shells: Efficiency in Form" was co-taught by Sigrid Adriaenssens and ...
