. Deep ocean power systems. Electric power distribution; Hydroelectric power plants.

A method developed by General Dynamics* was used to analyze the collapse by yielding of a cylinder and hemispherical cylinder heads. This method calculates outer fiber, midfiber, and inner fiber stresses at frames and midbay as well as deflections and local stresses. Computations were made for two types of collapse of a cylinder by buckling. Lobar buckling was approximated by E (1 - m") ^ Pk = Buckling by instability was approximated by ,4 Pk = Eh a W 1 +. where P^, = lobar buckling, psi E = modulus of elasticity h = shell thickness, in. a = nominal outside shell radius, in. M = Poisson's ratio n = number of lobes m = a/L L = effective length of cylinder, in. 1 = moment of inertia of shell frame R = radius of frame-shell section, in.
