Description

The buckling characteristics of a typical free-standing welded steel containment vessel are considered. The results of analyses utilizing computer codes are compared for a variety of load combinations. Practical conclusions of the vulnerability of such a containment vessel to buckling for a variety of load inputs and combinations are drawn. (orig.)
