The Theory of Stability of Cylindrical Composite Shells Revisited

  • Published:
International Applied Mechanics Aims and scope

A method for the stability analysis of laminated cylindrical shells with anisotropy due to plies with one plane of symmetry is developed. The governing system of differential equations is derived using the Timoshenko hypotheses for displacements. The dependence of the critical loads on the orientation, number, thickness, and transverse shear stiffness of plies under axial compression is studied
