INTRODUCTION Generally, the thin cylindrical and spherical shells are used to contain fluids or gas such as in tanks, boilers, compressed air receivers, pipes, pump cylinders, etc. A cylinder is called as thin cylinders when the ratio of wall thickness to the diameter of cylinder is less than 1/20. In such a case, the hoop or circumferential stress developed in its wall is assumed to be constant throughout the thickness. This chapter mainly consists of stresses developed in thin cylinder and shells of both cylindrical and spherical types under internal pressure.
