Recent Developments in Anisotropic Heterogeneous Shell TheoryGeneral Theory and Applications of Classical Theory - Volume 1\nAuthor(s): Alexander Ya. Grigorenko, Wolfgang H. Mller, Yaroslav M. Grigorenko, Georgii G. Vlaikov\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Springer Verlag, Singapore, Singapore\nImprint: Springer Verlag, Singapore\nISBN-13: 9789811003523, 978-9811003523\nSynopsis\nThis volume focuses\non the relevant general theory and presents some first applications, namely\nthose based on classical shell theory. After a brief introduction, during which\nthe history and state-of-the-art are discussed,the first chapter\npresentsthe mechanics of anisotropic heterogeneous shells, covering all\nrelevant assumptions and the basic relations of 3D elasticity, classical and\nrefined shell models. The second chapter examines the numerical techniques that\nare used, namely discrete orthogonalization, spline-collocation and Fourier\nseries, while the third highlights applications based on classi.
