Large displacement and rotational formulation for laminated shells including parabolic transverse shear

ST Dennis, AN Palazotto - International journal of non-linear mechanics, 1990 - Elsevier
The paper presents an approach for a general laminated shell geometry describable by
orthogonal curvilinear coordinates. The theory includes a through-the-thickness parabolic …

Free-form shell analysis by a mixed-hybrid finite element approach

D Karamanlidis, R Jasti - Archive of Applied Mechanics, 1987 - ui.adsabs.harvard.edu
