  1. A thin-walled spherical vessel (1 m inner diameter and 10 mm wall thickness) is made of a material with |σY| = 500MPa in both tension and compression. 
    If the vessel is evacuated (internal pressure = 0) and subjected to external pressure, yielding according to the von Mises yield criterion (assuming elastic stability until yield)
  2. A.
    occurs at about half the pressure pY .
    B.
    occurs at about double the pressure pY.
    C.
    occurs at about the same pressure pY.
    D.
    never occurs.
