International Applied Mechanics Aims and scope

Abstract

An approach to solving the buckling problem for shells made of a composite material with one plane of elastic symmetry is presented. The approach employs complex Fourier series. The prebuckling stress-strain state is assumed to be geometrically nonlinear. The stability of a cylindrical shell under axial compression and uniform side pressure is analyzed using the Runge-Kutta method with discrete orthogonalization. The numerical results are compared with analytical solutions
