Optimum design of isotropic monocoque and ring-stiffened circular cylindrical shells subject to external hydrostatic pressure
The objective of this research is to create a flexible code which is to be used in the investigation of optimum (minimum weight) shell designs. A shell analysis/design program (DAPS3) and a general purpose numerical optimization program (ADS) are incorporated into a single code (THESIS). This code p...
