To guard against buckling modes I know that circumferential stiffeners can strengthen a cylindrical vessel against external pressure / internal vacuum.
Question: Stiffer rings do not contribute anything to protect vessel against internal pressure, correct? I think not, based on Stress eqs. and my understanding. But just wanted to verify my understanding.
