| Abstract: | Summary A solution method is developed for a laminated spherical shell, subject to uniform normal tractions or constant radial displacements
on the boundary. Displacements and stresses in the shell can be obtained from the solution formulas, which are as simple as
those for homogeneous spherical shells. These formulas are accurate when the thicknesses of the constituent spherical layers
are small in comparison with the radii of the shell, and become exact in case these thicknesses tend to zero under a fixed
overall shell thickness. The solution is obtained mainly by exactly treating the product of an infinitely large number of
matrices which link the displacements and stresses in different constituent spherical layers. A continuous analysis and a
number of numerical results are provided to validate this development.
