Effect of material heat sensitivity on the deformation of laminar shells of revolution

A method of calculating laminar shells of revolution fashioned from orthotropic heat-sensitive materials is developed within the framework of an accepted variant of finite-displacement theory, which takes into account the nonlinear distribution of transverse-shear strains at the level of hypothesis. The influence exerted by heat sensitivity, type of loading, and boundary conditions on the stress-strain state of laminar cylindrical shells fabricated from orthotropic heat-sensitive materials is analyzed.Translated from Problemy Prochnosti, No. 11, pp. 60–68, November, 1994.
