Abstract

By using the equilibrium equations in displacements, we develop an analytic method for the evaluation of upper critical loads in elastic cylindrical shells with transverse reinforcement. As a result, we deduce analytic expressions for the evaluation of critical stresses in momentless shells and propose a procedure for the evaluation of the lower limit of the load-carrying capacity of shells based on the application of the method of reduced stiffness. The numerical results are compared with the available theoretical and experimental data.
