Cylindrical vessels are widely used for storage and transportation of fluids. Using composites shells can improve the corrosion resistance of the product and reduce weight therefore investigation of the mechanical behavior is important. For this purpose cylinders with 6, 12 and18-ply of GFRP , with...
