GEOMETRICALLY NONLINEAR SHELL THEORY IN THE LIGHT OF THE METHOD OF ASYMPTOTIC INTEGRATION

The method of asymptotic integration, described in the paper, allows an iteration procedure for the successive determination of a approximate solution of three-demensional equations of geometrically nonlinear theory for the shell continuum. The classification of the shell problems is presented in terms of qualitative and quantitative characteristics of the shell data, and a possibility of estimating the influence of different types of external actions is indicated. On the basis of the results yielded by the asymptotic analysis, general information on the shell behavior may be deduced. A comparison of the predictions with the results of the numerical analysis is given for some plate and shell examples.
