International Applied Mechanics Aims and scope

Abstract

The deformation of flexible multilayer circular cylindrical shells of variable stiffness is studied under a refined theory that accounts for the inhomogeneity of transverse shear strains. The effect of variation in the thickness at constant weight on the stress–strain state of a shell is analyzed
