Abstract
Thin elastic laminate shells made of various composite materials are widely used structural elements. The problem of ensuring their light weight with adequate rigidity and strength is directly related to a selection of rational parameter values under imposed constraints. The optimal design of structural elements poses several complex problems which, because of contradictory requirements and various other indeterminacies, cannot always be formulated mathematically [i]. Various informal approaches can be successfully taken, along with methods in the theory of optimum systems, to the selection of rational parameter values.
