ASYMPTOTIC ANALYSIS OF A BUCKLING PROBLEM FOR AN EMBEDDED SPHERICAL SHELL
The axisymmetric buckling of a spherical shell embedded in an elastic medium with uniaxial compression at infinity is examined in the limit of small shell thickness ratio. An asymptotic method is developed by considering the paradigm problem of a beam attached to a Winkler substrate of variable stif...
