Summary

A new theory is presented for shells of revolution undergoing axisymmetric arbitrarily large strain deformations. The material of the shell is assumed to be hyperelastic incompressible. The formulated theory is applied to analyse the flexural buckling of circular plates under uniform radial loads.

Übersicht

Eine neue Theorie zur Berechnung achsensymmetrischer Verformungen von Rotationsschalen unter Berücksichtigung beliebig großer Dehnungen wird angegeben. Das Material der Schale wird hyperelastisch und inkompressibel angenommen. Die Theorie wird zur Berechnung des Beulens von Kreisplatten unter gleichmäßiger Radialbelastung angewandt.
