Total Stress on the skin = σ TOT MPa
Factor Of Safety on UTS = UTS / σ TOT = FOS
Buckling Analysis of the shell:

WALLED CIRCULAR CYLINDERS) BM AF D
Radius of the shell R = Rs
Thickness of shell t
Ratio of Radius & Thickness = R / t
Young's modulus E =106300 MPa
Parameter Ø = (1/16) * (√ (R / T))
Parameter(1- e-Ø) L
Parameter γ c = 1- (0.901 * (1- e-Ø))
Parameter γ b = 1- (0.731 * (1- e-Ø))
Critical stress (AF) σ Ccr = 0.6 * γ c *E* (t / R)
Critical stress (BM) σ Bcr = 0.6 * γ b *E* (t / R)
Stress due to AF σ C = P/A
Stress due to BM σ B = M/Z
Ratio of Stress due to AF Rc = σ C/ σ Ccr
Ratio of Stress due to BM Rb = σ B/ σ Bcr
Buckling Lad Factor is BLF = 1 / (Rc + Rb )
