The nature of the extensional response of anisotropic cylinders, such as helical-wound composite tubes, under various end con ditions is investigated analytically and experimentally. Of particular interest is the existence of a uniform state of stress under practical testing conditions. Also considered is the influence of end constraint on the stability of thin tubes.
