  Black rings are the black objects found in $D$ spacetime dimensional gravity
when $D \geq 5$. These have event horizon topology $S^{D-3}\times S^1$. In this
work the solutions of the large $D$ membrane paradigm dual to stationary black
rings in Einstein-Maxwell theory with or without cosmological constant are
studied. It is shown that the first order membrane equations can only admit
static asymptotically flat black rings, and the equilibrium angular velocity
for the asymptotically AdS black rings at large $D$ was obtained. The
thermodynamic and dynamic stability of the asymptotically flat black ring
solutions is studied. The apparent shortcomings of some of these results are
argued to be curable within the large $D$ membrane paradigm framework.
