Introduction. Composite materials are used in the construction of transport infrastructure facilities, buildings and structures for various purposes, in housing and communal services. Calculation of structures made of composite materials is used in the field of stress-strain state, buckling, analysis of material under tension, the effect of cracks on the state of these structures. The main properties of composite materials and a method of manufacturing a cylindrical shell structure from a composite material are considered. The total number of winding options is calculated using the combinatorial method.Materials and methods. A composite cylindrical shell with a radius of R = 300 mm and a height of H = 600 mm was chosen as the object of research. The creation of a model of a cylindrical shell in a finite element analysis package is described. An axial compressive load acting on the shell with a force of F = 100 kN is specified. Determination of the critical force ratio.Results. The results of the analysis of the loss of stability of the cylindrical shell are obtained and the graphs of the dependence of the critical force on the options for laying the layers are presented. Depending on the magnitude of the critical force and the form of buckling, the most and least favorable options for laying layers in a composite material package have been determined.Discussion and conclusions. A conclusion is made of the dependence of the critical force on the combination of stacking layers in the composite.
