Abstract
Calculates buckling combination of external pressure and radial force, energy barrier and post-buckling deflection depending on the pressure parameter, estimates knock down factor for design buckling load. The underlying analytical model and energy barrier criterion for design buckling load estimation is developed in the following research papers:
