Abstract

The theory of multidirector surfaces is shown to correspond to a theory of multilayered shells based on the assumption of piece-wise linearity of the displacement field across the thickness. Equations of balance are obtained from an action principle and compared with a previous formulation based on thickness-wise integration of 3-dimensional fields. Compatibility conditions in terms of a minimal set of strain measures are included.
