Hamiltonian approach to studying thin shells of revolution made of composite materials

A method for constructing defining relations of the linear theory of shells of revolution in complex Hamiltonian form has been proposed. Based on the Lagrange variational principle, we have constructed a mathematical model of a multilayer orthotropic shell of revolution. We have obtained explicit expressions for the coefficients and right-hand sides of the Hamiltonian complex system of equations describing the statics of shells of revolution in terms of their rigid characteristics and acting loads. The Hamiltonian resolving system of linear differential equations, formulated in the axially symmetric case, has some specific properties facilitating both analytical studies and numerical procedures of their solution.
