Abstract
An orthotropic shallow cylindrical shell lying on a Pasternak type ela stic foundation is investigated. Load/deflection curves are drawn for simply supported movable and immovable edge conditions. The influences of shell geometry, foundation parameters and edge conditions on these characteristics are discussed. It is noticed that load/deflection cur ves of shells with movable edges are least affected by changes in the above referred parameters.
