Abstract: | A doubly curved shell element of quadrilateral shape which is suitable for the analyses of rotational shells is derived. Geometry is defined in a polar coordinate system while displacements are specified in cartesian coordinates. The element is a C° element which includes transverse shear deformations and is intended for modelling shells which follow a circular curve form in one direction. |
