This is Fig. 13 from the 2009 GENOPT paper. Shown here is the BIGBOSOR4 prediction of axisymmetric deformation of the optimized imperfect isogrid-stiffened equivalent ellipsoidal shell with an axisymmetric +mode 2 linear bifurcation buckling modal imperfection shape with amplitude, Wimp = +0.2 inches.
The applied external pressure is the design pressure, p = 460 psi. The shape of the buckling modal imperfection is displayed in Fig. 5 (previous slide).
The maximum stresses and local buckling load factors of skin and meridionally oriented isogrid members computed by BIGBOSOR4 and associated with this deformation pattern are listed in Table 43 of the 2009 GENOPT paper.
