The main aim of this paper is to study the nonlinear buckling behavior of carbon nanotube-reinforced (CNT-reinforced) cylindrical shells with the CNT-reinforced stiffeners under external pressure taking into account the effects of uniform temperature rise. A new design of stiffener system is propose...
