Abstract
The principal achievements of science and engineering in the sphere of design, construction, and static, vibrational, and buckling analysis of thin-walled constructions and buildings in the shape of hyperbolic surfaces of revolution are summarized in this review article. These shells are useful as hyperbolic cooling towers, TV towers, reinforced concrete water tanks, and arch dams. They are also used as supports for electric power transmission lines and as high chimneys. Several public and industrial buildings having the hyperbolic form are described in the review. The basic results of theoretical and experimental investigations of stress-strain state, buckling, and vibration are summarized. The influence of temperature and moisture on the stress-strain state of the shells in question is also analyzed. This review article contains 261 references.
