In the article the stress-strain state of thick-walled structurally anisotropic composite cylindrical shells under thermal power load, which are protected by a functionally graded material, are analysed. Based on the interrelations of the spatial theory of elasticity, a system of inhomogeneous differential equations in three-dimensional formulation, which describes the stress-strain state of thick-walled anisotropic cylindrical shells, was obtained. To reduce the dimensionality of this system, the Bubnov-Galerkin analytical method was used. Thus, the obtained one-dimensional system of twelve equations of normal Cauchy form was implemented using the numerical method of discrete orthogonalization. To represent the possibilities of the proposed approach, there were used stress-strain states of two, four and five-layered anisotropic cylindrical shells of fibrous composites, protected from temperature by a layer of transversely isotropic functionally graded material.

The analysis of the design and technological features of the tail boom (ТB) of a helicopter made of polymer composite materials (PCM) is carried out.Three structural and technological concepts are distinguished - semi-monocoque (reinforced metal structure), monocoque (three-layer structure) and mesh-type structure. The high weight and economic efficiency of mesh structures is shown, which allows them to be used in aerospace engineering. The physicomechanical characteristics of the network structures are estimated and their uniqueness is shown. The use of mesh structures can reduce the weight of the product by a factor of two or more.The stress-strain state (SSS) of the proposed tail boom design is determined. The analysis of methods for calculating the characteristics of the total SSS of conical mesh shells is carried out. The design of the tail boom is presented, the design diagram of the tail boom of the transport category rotorcraft is developed. A finite element model was created using the Siemens NX 7.5 system. The calculation of the stress-strain state (SSS) of the HC of the helicopter was carried out on the basis of the developed structural scheme using the Advanced Simulation module of the Siemens NX 7.5 system. The main zones of probable fatigue failure of tail booms are determined. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) provides a theoretical basis for design decisions.Shown is the effect of the type of technological process selected for the production of the tail boom on the strength of the HB structure. The stability of the characteristics of the PCM tail boom largely depends on the extent to which its design is suitable for the use of mechanized and automated production processes.A method for the manufacture of a helicopter tail boom from PCM by the automated winding method is proposed. A variant of computer modeling of the tail boom of a mesh structure made of PCM is shown.The automated winding technology can be recommended for implementation in the design of the composite tail boom of the Mi-2 and Mi-8 helicopters.
