The general asymptotic method proposed in Part I is applied to the investigation of the puckering instability in the hemispherical cup test. Both a membrane and a shell stress state for the principal axisymmetric solution have been considered. Due to the possibility of strong deviations from proportional loading in some cases, a corner theory of plasticity is also employed, in addition to the standard J2 deformation theory which is often used in plastic buckling calculations. Results are compared to a previous experimental investigation for brass specimens. [S0021-8936(00)00904-1]
