Abstract

The behavior of a glass-reinforced plastic cylindrical shell under long-term hydrostatic pressure is investigated using the geometrically nonlinear equations of Timoshenko-type shell theory, which permit transverse shear strains to be taken into account. A system of nonlinear differential equations for describing the variation of the state of the shell with time under load is obtained and solved on a BESM-3M computer using a program written in Algol-60 and a "Signal" translator. Values of the critical time are obtained for various load levels.
