Study of the stress state of isotropic thick-walled shells of nonuniform structure

Abstract

Homogeneous solutions to problems for slabs that are nonuniform throughout their thickness were obtained and analyzed in [4], while a numerical method was used in [5] to design thickwalled anisotropic nonuniform shells. Kolyano and Kushnir [7] used the method of averagini~ to study anisotropic plates with a nonuniform structure. Here, we use the method developed by I. N. Vekua to study isotropic nonuniform thick-walled shells of constant thickness.
