AB  - Purpose– The purpose of this paper is to provide the guidance on a design and integrity evaluation of a cylinder under pressure, for which stress analysis has been done for transversely isotropic thick-walled circular cylinder under internal and external pressure with thermal effects. Design/methodology/approach– Transition theory has been used to evaluate plastic stresses based on the concept of generalized principal Lebesgue strain measure which simplifies the constitutive equations and helps to achieve better agreement between the theoretical and experimental results. Findings– It can be concluded that circular cylinder with thermal effects under internal and external pressure made of isotropic material (steel) is on the safer side of the design as compared to the cylinder made of transversely isotropic material (i.e. magnesium and beryl) because percentage increase in effective pressure required for initial yielding to become fully plastic is high for isotropic material (steel) as compared to transversely isotropic material (i.e. magnesium and beryl). It can also be concluded that out of two transversely isotropic materials, beryl is better choice for design of cylinder as compared to magnesium material because percentage increase in effective pressure required for initial yielding to become fully plastic is high for beryl as compared to magnesium. Originality/value– A detailed investigation of thermal transversely isotropic thick-walled circular cylinder under internal and external pressure has been done which leads to the idea of “stress saving” that minimizes the possibility of fracture of cylinder.
