Phase diagrams for various mach number, M

W = normal displacement
M = Mach number
Lambda = 2q(infinity)a^3/MDm)
in which q is the far-field dynamic pressure, a is the shell length, and Dm is the bending stiffness if the shell were made entirely of metal.

From the same paper as the previous 2 images.
