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 Hills 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. |
