International Applied Mechanics Aims and scope

Abstract

The exact analytical solution of the deformation problem for a flexible long noncircular cylindrical shell is used to analyze how a geometrical parameter characterizing the wall thickness and curvature of the shell affects its behavior when its longitudinal edges are rigidly clamped. Plots of the deflection–load relationship are presented for various values of the geometric parameter
