ABSTRACT: Some new solutions for mechanical response of composite circular cylinders are shown, which
allow the solution of technical problems as: design of optimum assembling aimed to maximize stiffness in cases
of bending and shear, design of optical fibre sensors for distributed strain measurements, prediction of collapse
load of concrete columns confined by Fiber Reinforced Polymers. ...
