Theory of Composite Shells.

Like beams and plates, shells are the functional element of structural engineering. At the research level, a large group of researchers works in the field of bending, free vibration, buckling, and post-buckling analysis of shells made of composites, sandwiches, and advanced material. In this course, the basic concept of doubly curved surfaces will be developed and the governing equation will be developed. This will help the participants to develop the shell equations as per their requirements. Bending, free vibration, and buckling of the shell will be explained. A tutorial using ABAQUS will also be conducted.
Composite Shells INTENDED AUDIENCE: Research scholar and Faculties.
