Ultimate strength and failure characteristics of R/C cylindrical shell under combined loading

钢筋混凝土（R/C）壳体由混凝土和钢筋组成，形成曲面结构。众所周知，这些结构在压缩或横向载荷下显示出大的承载能力。然而，这些结构在压缩和横向载荷联合作用下的强度尚未得到太多研究。钢筋混凝土壳体在复合荷载作用下的强度将成为建筑物和储罐设计的重要因素。本研究利用精密制作的试验模型，对复合荷载作用下钢筋混凝土结构的强度进行了研究。然后通过数值分析计算其强度，对各种钢筋混凝土薄壳进行评价

Reinforced concrete (R/C) shell consists of a concrete and reinforcement and forms a curved surface structure. It is well known that these structures show a large load bearing capacity under a compressive or a lateral load. However, the strength of these structures has not been investigated much under combined compressive and lateral loads. The strength of R/C shell under combined loads will be an important factor to design buildings and storage tanks. In this research, the strength of R/C structure under combined loads is investigated using the experimental model made precisely. Then calculating the strength by numerical analyses, any kinds of R/C shell will be evaluated
