Abstract

A nonlinear integro‐differential equation for determination of the shape of the meridian of a shell of revolution for which a prescribed external load produces no change in the curvature and torsion of the median surface has been derived. A formula for determination of the cross‐sectional area of an elastic stiffening ring has been obtained.
