Abstract

ABSTRACT Elastic shell bending theory is applied to the problem of an axisymmetric foundation that consists of two spherical shell segments and a ring beam. The loading consists of a uniform vertical line load applied axisymmetrically on the ring beam. A two parameter foundation model is assumed and shell-beam as well as shell-soil stress and deformation interaction is considered. Theoretical results are computed and compared with results from two approximate analyses.
