Wind Stresses in Domes
The bending stresses due to antisymmetrical wind pressures in a hemispherical dome elastically built-in into a cylinder are determined by means of a Geckeler approach extended to non-symmetrical loads. The simple form of the results allows their use by the designer. A numerical comparison with the asymptotic solution of Schwerin indicates the satisfactory accuracy of this approximate solution for all cases of practical interest. The methods used in the solution of the present problem are easily extended to spherical sector shells stiffened by rings at the boundary and to other types of non-symmetrical loads.
