Limit analysis of a shallow shell with a system of arbitrarily located cracks
Abstract
Lutsk State Technical University, Lutsk, Ukraine The problem of limit analysis of a spherical shell with arbitrarily located rectilinear (in-plane) through cracks is reduced to a system of singular integral equations. The system is solved numerically under the boundedness conditions for forces and moments near the cracks and plasticity conditions for thin shells. As an example the shell with four cracks is analyzed.
