Abstract
The paper presents 3D results of a quasi-static buckling analysis of a funnel-flow cylindrical metal bin composed of horizontally corrugated sheets strengthened by vertical columns. A linear buckling and a non-linear analysis with geometric and material non-linearity were carried out with a perfect and an imperfect real silo shell by taking into account axisymmetric and non-axisymmetric loads imposed by a bulk solid following Eurocode 1 and different initial geometric imperfections and load non-uniformities around the circumference. The calculated buckling forces were compared with the permissible one given by Eurocode 3.
