submarine yacht concrete hull calculation

... Your hull has a very high thickness to diameter ratio so I would not believe that it will buckle at all. Due to the very smooth shape every cross cut is more or less a perfect circle and can stand for its own... what helps very well to deal with the pressure load.

So without sail and viewport cutouts such a shell would withstand external pressure until the concrete would reach its pressure limit....

The calculation for such a perfect rotational shape could be made with pen and paper and I'm sure You have done this very well and carfully...
