Buckling modes of the shell shown in the previous slide

This is Fig. 2 from the original 1977 BOSOR4 user's manual paper. This slide shows w-components of eigenvectors for linear buckling analysis of the externally pressurized, six-segment shell shown in the previous slide. n is the number of circumferential waves in the buckling mode and p is the buckling pressure in psi.
