Conclusions
-
1.
A short shell under moderate load is deformed into a frustum of a cone.
-
2.
A long shell under moderate load also has the shape of a frustum of a cone in the acceleration stage, but in the deceleration stage the shell is divided into two parts by a moving hinge region: the zone between the fixed and hinge regions gradually escapes from the deformation process and the other zone continues in motion in the form of a frustum of a cone.
-
3.
A short shell under heavy load consists in the acceleration stage, of two frustums of a cone separated by a fixed hinge region; in the deceleration stage, the shape of the shell is maintained up to a definite time, but the hinge region, gradually decelerating, moves to the free end of the shell until it stops and the generator becomes straight; at the end of the process, the shell has the shape of a frustum of a cone.
-
4.
A long shell under heavy load is deformed just like a short shell in the acceleration stage, but in the deceleration stage its shape is the same only for certain values of shell dimension and of deformation time.
