Abstract

The extended Newton method combined with the method of finite-differences is shown to be a powerful means to the steady-state creep analysis of shells of revolution. The creep theory of von Mises type and the power creep law are assumed. As numerical examples, a simply-supported circular cylindrical shell with open ends and a clamped spherical shell, subjected to internal pressure respectively, are analysed. The results of calculation of the cylindrical shell, in particular, are compared with those of semi-infinite sandwich shell obtained by Rabotnov.
