PANDA--Interactive Computer Program for Preliminary Minimum Weight Design of Composite or Elastic-Plastic, Stiffened Cylindrical Panels and Shells under Combined In-Plane Loads,

Abstract

An analysis and an interactive computer program are described through which minimum weight designs of composite, stiffned, cylindrical panels can be obtained subject to general and local buckling constraints and stresses and strain constraints. The panels are subjected to arbitrary combinations of in-plane axial, circumferential, and shear resultants.
