Abstract

The geometrical nonlinearity model in statical analysis of shells is described and presented. Influences of great displacements and small deformations are taken into account in the calculation model. This model enables simultaneous analysis of geometrical and material nonlinearity of structures. Elements of a degenerated curved shell are used in calculations. The numerical model for simulation of the geometrical nonlinearity of shells was checked by experimental testing of a slender steel cantilever.
