Slabs, Plates and Shells

This module studies the fundamentals of the theory of 2-dimensional structural systems. The software ROTASS can be used to calculate rotationally symmetric structures.

Slabs

  • Theory of slender structures
  • Solution methods

Plates

  • Theory of thin-walled plates
  • Structural behavior of plates
  • Solution methods

Shells

  • Basics of the shell theory
  • Membrane theory of rotational shells
  • Bending theory of cylindrical shell
  • Design and construction
