β¦ Synopsis
The regulatory criteria for containers that are used to transport radioactive materials require that the container maintain structural integrity for an accidental drop of up to 30 ft onto a non-yielding surface. Storage containers for radioactive materials are also designed for accidental drops, usually of lesser heights. The design of these containers generally requires a determination of the peak magnitude of the impact force acting on the container. This paper presents an analytical solution that can be used to estimate the primary impact forces for cylindrical containers. Equations are derived for essentially all drop orientations.

The general equations of the vibrations of high speed rotating shells of revolution, with consideration of Coriolis accelerations and large deformations, are established by the method of linear approximation. In the general case, there are great difficulties in obtaining analytical solutions of the
