Assertion (A): Curved shell buckling predictions carry large empirical knock-down factors.

Reason (R): Real shells are highly sensitive to small geometric imperfections.

Select the correct answer from the options below.

  • A.Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A
  • B.Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A
  • C.A is true but R is false
  • D.A is false but R is true

Answer: A

Both are true and the second explains the first. Test loads far below classical theory were a long-standing puzzle until imperfection sensitivity was understood, and the factors encode that experience rather than any refinement of the theory.
