Rubber spherical shell buckled under uniform external pressure

from the "Research" page of Dr. Alexander Yevkin's (Evkin's) home page:

Dr. Yevkin writes: "The unique experimental studies of elastic rubber spherical shells under uniform external pressure and concentrated load were conducted together with my postgraduate student Dr. S. Duginetz. The load-displacement diagrams have been obtained for deflections whose values reached the radius of the shell. Equilibrium configurations were also studied."
