Nonlinear axisymmetric bending and stability of spherical caps under concentrated loads at the apex
The nonlinear axisymmetric bending and stability of spherical caps under concentrated loads at the apex are investigated. The nonlinear equations governing large axi-symmetric deflections of the spherical caps are solved by using the Newton-spline method. Solutions for both unbuckled and buckled states are obtained, and results are compared with those obtained from theoretical and experimental studies.
