A CONSIDERABLE amount of literature has been published in recent years concerning the theory of cylindrical thin shells under axial compression with or without internal pressure, and in this note it is shown that a simple approach could be made for efficient design of such pressure vessels. The vessel considered is shown in FIG. 1 together with some of its details. End effects and the initial deformations are not included in this work.
