Elastic Plates and Shells and the Stability of Thin-Walled Structures.

Abstract

Progress on bending and buckling of plates and deep buckling and post-buckling regime analysis for complete spherical and oblate spheroidal shells is reported. The use of von Karman-type equations and the Galerkin method (with orthogonal series) is reported. Some new work on orthogonal expansions and hydrodynamic stability are also reported. Special emphasis is placed on new program for solving non-linear numerical equations in several variables. (Author)
