U
14、sed in conjunction with API RP 2T or otherapplicable codes and standards, this Bulletin will be helpful to engineers involved in thedesign of offshore structures which include large diameter stiffened or unstiffened cylinders.The buckling formulations and design considerations contained herein are b
15、ased on clas-sical buckling formulations, the latest available test data, and analytical studies. This thirdedition of the Bulletin provides buckling formulations and design considerations based onclassical buckling solutions. It also incorporates user experience and feedback from users. Itis intend
16、ed for design and/or review of large diameter cylindrical shells, typically identifiedas those with D/t ratios greater than or equal to 300. Equations are provided for the predic-tion of stresses at which typical modes of buckling failures occur for unstiffened and stiff-ened cylindrical shells, fro
17、m which the design of the shell plate and the stiffeners may bedeveloped.

Bulletin 2U-Bulletin on Stability Design of Cylindrical Shells 7 SECTION 1General Provisions 1.1 SCOPE 1.1.1 This Bulletin provides stability criteria for determining the structural adequacy against buckling of large diameter circular cylindrical members when subjected to axial l
45、oad, bending, shear and external pressure acting independently or in combination. The cylinders may be unstiffened, longitudinally stiffened, ring stiffened or stiffened with both longitudinal and ring stiffeners. Research and development work leading to the preparation and issue of all three editio
46、ns of this Bulletin is documented in References 1 through 16 and the Commentary. 1.1.2 The buckling capacities of the cylinders are based on linear bifurcation (classical) analyses reduced by capacity reduction factors which account for the effects of imperfections and nonlinearity in geometry and b
47、oundary conditions and by plasticity reduction factors which account for nonlinearity in material properties. The reduction factors were determined from tests conducted on fabricated steel cylinders. The plasticity reduction factors include the effects of residual stresses resulting from the fabrica
48、tion process. 1.1.3 Fabricated cylinders are produced by butt-welding together cold or hot formed plate materials. Long fabricated cylinders are generally made by butt-welding together a series of short sections, commonly referred to as cans, with the longitudinal welds rotated between the cans. Lon
49、g fabricated cylinders generally have D/t ratios less than 300 and are covered by AP RP 2A. 1.2 LIMITATIONS 1.2.1 The criteria given are for stiffened cylinders with uniform thickness between ring stiffeners or for unstiffened cylinders of uniform thickness. All shell penetrations must be properly reinforced. The results of experimental studies on buckling of shells with reinforced openings and some design guidance are given in Ref. 2. The stability criteria of this bulletin may be used for cylinders with openings that are reinforced in accordance with th
