Composite pressure vessels have the characteristics of light weight, corrosion resistance, good sealing, and high reliability, and have been widely used in military and civilian applications. With the widespread use of composite pressure vessels today, determining how to conduct scientific research and correct analysis becomes very important. With the continuous development of computer technology and the continuous improvement of finite element algorithms, the numerical calculation method has become an important method for studying composite pressure vessels. In this paper, the finite element analysis of filament wound composite pressure vessels is carried out by means of ANSYS and OpenSees. The semi-analytical method is used to optimize the design with the help of the Python tool. The parametric language is used to design different fiber layer schemes. The optimal fiber layer scheme is obtained by Nelder-Mead optimization function optimization. The optimal angle and thickness obtained after multiple iterations are 9.96875° and 0.03325 m, respectively.
