Water and oil reservoirs are commonly made from polymers. To enhance their mechanical strength, the technique of incorporating short glass particulates into the polymers is employed. This method improves the overall reliability of the reservoirs. The objective of this study is to analyze the thermal instability that occurs during the buckling of panels in these reservoirs. Previous research has shown that the addition of short glass particulates can negatively impact thermal buckling. In the first stage of this study, polymers will be mixed with 10% and 20% short glass particulates, and a calculation script will be developed to determine the thermal buckling behavior.
