Modeling the behavior of cylindrical shell structures weakened by holes when applying a load evenly distributed over the surface, taking into account geometric nonlinearity in the finite element software package ANSYS Mechanical APDL 2022R. Models of cylindrical shell structures with various hole arrangements have been created, and an analysis of the behavior of structures with an increase in the magnitude of the acting external uniformly distributed load has been carried out. Material type: isotropic, steel. Load-deflection graphs are obtained. The values of the critical load at which the structure loses stability are found. The values of internal stresses arising in structures under the influence of a critical load are found. The values of the displacement of the nodes are found: central and quarter under the influence of a critical load.

Keywords: Shell structures, stress-strain state, loss of stability, finite element method, deflection, supercritical behavior, geometric nonlinearity, step-by-step application of load, load–deflection dependence graph, isotropic material
