Abstract
Starting with Love type equations of motion for orthotropic circular cylindrical shells, the theory is simplified by assumptions similar to those in the Donnell-Mushtari-Vlasov development for isotropic shells. Closed form solutions for simply supported cases are then obtained. Results of two example cases are compared with finite element results and are shown to agree well. It is argued that this simplified approach allows easy assessment of the influence of design parameter changes.
