The paper describes an impact response analysis of the simply supported elastic circular cylindrical shells composed of two bonded isotropic layers. Exact analysis is developed using the method of eigenfunction expansion based on the three-dimensional theory of elastodynamics. The axisymmetrical compressive load is suddenly applied radially inward and outward on the surface of the shell. Numerical calculations are made for the steel-concrete cylindrical shells, and the propagation of stress waves in the shells are shown graphically. The present results can be served as a reference to approximate solutions using numerical approaches such as FEM.
