Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Engineering Mechanics

Abstract:

A three-dimensional elasticity solution is obtained for a transversely isotropic solid containing an isotropic spherical membrane shell. Perfect bonding is assumed between the shell and the surrounding medium. The loading may be any axisymmetric truction distribution applied to the inner surface of the shell and/or at infinity.
