...It plots stresses, deflections and the equilibrium path for imperfect circular cylinders showing the onset of yielding and limit points in relation to elastic and inelastic bifurcation buckling pressures. Two types of initial geometric imperfections, outer diameter out-of-roundness and outer-to-inner diameter eccentricity with a phase angle between them, can be considered. CPVparametric.xlsm, does parametric analyses. It plots performance parameters against depth or pressure for up to five different combinations of materials and shell geometries including initial imperfections. ...
