Abstract

A set of partial differential equations governing orthotropic shallow shells with arbitrary quadratic midsurface is reduced into an eight order partial differential equation with one function as unknown. By use of the method of plane wave decomposition this partial differential equation is transformed into an ordinary differential equation. The fundamental solutions for orthotropic shallow shells are presented in the form of a definite integral. The calculation of the fundamental solutions is discussed in detail.
