Abstract
This study investigates the buckling properties of cylindrical shells with corrosion damage. 14 304-stainless-steel cylindrical shells were fabricated, and 13 were subjected to artificial electrochemically accelerated corrosion. The surface morphology of the corroded cylindrical shells were measured. Then the buckling of 14 cylindrical shells was obtained by hydrostatic test. The effects of corrosion position, corrosion area, corrosion time and corroded volume loss on ultimate strength of the cylindrical shells were analyzed. Through reverse reconstruction, a finite element model of a cylindrical shell that reflects the actual corrosion surface morphology was established and employed to analyze the effect of corrosion damage on buckling. The experimental values were compared with theoretical values obtained using existing buckling analytical formulas to verify the formulas’ applicability.
