Abstract The problem of determining the reinforcement structure that maximizes the stability of a cylindrical shell subjected to external pressure was formulated in [1], where a numerical solution was obtained for a particular class of structures on the basis of a formula for the stability limit of a hinged anisotropic circular cylindrical shell of medium length in the membrane state. In the present article the stability limit is determined more accurately, without any constraint on the length of the shell, and the optimization is carried out over a broader class of structures.
