“…Their study revealed that the surface translation of the cylindrical shell and the shape and size of the pitting defect are important parameters that influence the buckling load of the cylindrical shell. Huiyun Qiao [ 13 ] considered the effect of the number of cracks based on the elastic–plastic buckling theory and fracture mechanics and designed cylindrical shells made of Q235A steel with one, two, and three end cracks. They used finite element simulation to validate the accuracy of the designs and evaluated the effects of major factors such as the length of the long crack, the length of the short crack, the number of cracks, and the crack spacing on the results.…”

By experimental methods, 26 specimens were designed to conduct elastic and elastic–plastic buckling tests on cylindrical shells containing cracks. This study discusses the influence of factors such as the length–diameter ratio, the diameter–thickness ratio, the crack length, the inclination of the crack, etc., on the buckling load. Additionally, finite element models were established to compare with experimental results. For the PMMA cylindrical shell, the results showed that as the length–diameter ratio of the cylindrical shell increased, the buckling load first decreased and then increased. For the 6063 aluminum alloy cylindrical shell, with increasing length–diameter ratio, diameter–thickness ratio, and crack length of the cylindrical shell, the buckling load decreased accordingly. However, concerning the crack inclination, as the crack inclination increased, the buckling load increased accordingly. This indicates that the larger the crack inclination, the higher the load capacity of the cylindrical shell containing cracks. Through finite element simulations of cylindrical shells with cracks, it was found that through compressive mechanical properties, both elastic and elastic–plastic buckling loads yielded results that are closer to the experimental results. Additionally, the inclusion of contact effects in numerical simulations further improved the agreement with the experimental results, and the variation trend of the buckling load in the finite element simulation was consistent with the experimental results. The research findings provide valuable references for the assessment of load capacity in structures containing cracks.
