Buckling and post-buckling are among the most important failure factors in thin walled structures. The loadcarrying behavior of cylindrical thin-walled shell structures under external pressure load is strongly dependent upon the nature and magnitude of the initial imperfections. These imperfections are invariably caused by an assortment of manufacturing processes like installing or welding. One of the most important imperfections caused by welding that has been reported to have an essential detrimental effect on the buckling resistance of these shells under external pressure load is longitudinal imperfections. Buckling and post buckling capacity of the shells depend on the H/R and t/ R ratios (H the height, R the radius and t the thickness of a cylindrical shell). The present work discusses the finiteelement models labeled as SS (Shallow Slim), DS (Deep Slim), ST (Shallow Thick) and DT (Deep Thick). The samples of first group are modiï¬ed to include a line longitudinal imperfection, amplitudes of 0.5t, 1t, 2t, 3t, 4t and 8t in depth (t is the thickness of cylindrical shell). The results presented are in agreement with international codes and theories concerning buckling.
