Geometrically nonlinear analysis of layered anisotropic plates and shells
… analysis of layered composite plates and shells is demonstrated via several example problems. For comparison purposes, a two-dimensional finite element based on the Sanders shell theory with the von Karman (nonlinear) strains is also presented. The elements have the following features: • …

Geometric and material nonlinear analysis of laminated composite plates and shells
… model for laminated composite plates and shells is formulated and incorporated into a finite element model that accounts for both geometric nonlinearity and transverse shear stresses. The elasto-plastic material behavior is incorporated using the flow theory of plasticity. In particular, …

Vibration Analysis and Control of an Inflatable Toroidal Satellite Component Using Piezoelectric Actuators and Sensors
… concerned with theoretical formulations. We use Sanders' shell theory to derive the governing equations of motion for a shell subjected to pressure. To take into account the prestress effects of internal pressure, we use geometric nonlinearity, and to model the follower action of pressure force, …
