Abstract: The cylindrical components generally are subjected to buckling load in many of the applications. The shear stresses and the deformation of the material play key role in the life of the component. The present research involves the evaluation of such cylindrical component made of epoxy material, subjected to compressive load. The cylinders are made in two types, without and with reinforcement of fibres, with 0, 1, 2 and 4 holes equally spaced around the lateral surface. The system is simulated using ANSYS. The results obtained from the experimentation are analysed.
