Specimen 6: a hemispherical shell that buckled at p = 3.85 MPa
Specimen 7: a torispherical shell that buckled at p = 4.28 MPa
Specimen 8: a torispherical shell that buckled at p = 0.82 MPa
All three specimens have the same diameter and mass. As the shape is changed the uniform wall thickness is adjusted to keep the mass the same.
