Metal cylindrical shells are widely used to store and transport highly hazardous chemicals and used as pressure vessels and pipelines. These structures can be subjected to explosive loads to accidents, terrorism, or military actions. The design of the cylindrical shell is to be done to resist the internal explosive pressures. This paper is viewed on the design of the cylindrical shell which can be used in real life applications to resist the internal pressure caused due to explosion of the fluid in it. The design process involves the determination of explosive loading, structural analysis, selection of appropriate material and the dimensions of the shell. The shell design is conducted in CATIA modelling software. The failure analysis of the cylindrical shell is conducted on the ANSYS 2021 R2 to determine the deformations and the stresses developed in the structure. By varying the shell geometry and load acting, the structural analysis is conducted.
Key words: Cylindrical Shell / explosion pressure / explosive loading / structural analysis / CATIA / ANSYS 2022 r2 / deformations and stresses
