Investigation of the performance of composite shells under repeat internal pressure

The effect of the winding material and its thickness on the residual strains and the mode of failure of a composite shell is analyzed. The results of low-cycle fatigue tests on composite shells are presented.P. I. Baranov Central Institute of Aircraft Engine Building.
