This study presents an analytical investigation of the thermomechanical stability of hyperbolic doubly curved shells reinforced with graphene origami auxetic metamaterials (GOAMs) and resting on a Pasternak elastic foundation. The proposed model integrates shell geometry, thermal–mechanical loading, and architected auxetic reinforcement to capture their coupled influence on buckling behavior. Stability equations are derived using the First-Order Shear Deformation Theory (FSDT) and the principle of virtual work, while the effective thermoelastic properties of the GOAM phase are obtained through micromechanical homogenization as functions of folding angle, mass fraction, and spatial distribution. Closed-form eigenvalue solutions are achieved with Navier’s method for simply supported boundaries. The results reveal that GOAM reinforcement enhances the critical buckling load at low folding angles, whereas higher folding induces compliance that diminishes stability. The Pasternak shear layer significantly improves buckling resistance up to about 46% with pronounced effects in asymmetrically graded configurations. Compared with conventional composite shells, the proposed GOAM-reinforced shells exhibit tunable, folding-dependent stability responses. These findings highlight the potential of origami-inspired graphene metamaterials for designing lightweight, thermally stable thin-walled structures in aerospace morphing skins and multifunctional mechanical systems.
