Abstract: | A method is proposed for the numerical analysis of the thermoelastoplastic stress-strain state of laminated shells of revolution, made of isotropic and orthotropic materials, under axisymmetric loading. The method is based on the Kirchhoff-Love hypotheses for a layer stack, the theory of deformation along paths of small curvature for isotropic materials, and Hill s theory of flow with isotropic hardening for orthotropic materials. The problem is solved by the method of successive approximations. A numerical example is given.__________Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika, Vol. 40, No. 12, pp. 84–91, December 2004. |
