Abstract

GFRP (Glass Fiber Reinforced plastic) composite materials are find many applications in engineering fields like mechanical and civil engineering applications. It is because of the properties of these materials like light weight when compared to other materials, durability, rust proof and many more. The composite cylindrical shells are being used very widely in underground pipelines, Aerospace industries, submarines and so on. In present study, the buckling of thin walled glass reinforced polymer cylindrical shells with and without cutouts has been investigated by applying axial load on the shells. The results which were obtained in this experiment will show how the imperfections like cutouts will affect the buckling behavior of the
