Stresses were calculated by a numerical method in three reinforced monocoque cylinders subjected to pure bending. The cylinders were of circular cross section and were reinforced with 8 rings and either 8 or 16 stringers. There was a cutout on one side of each cylinder located symmetrically to the neutral plane and extending over 45, 90, and 135 degrees. Satisfactory agreement was found between stresses calculated and those measured in Part 4 of the present series of investigations.
