Abstract
This report describes nonlinear analysis o t arbitrary thin shell
structures subjected to static loads. The nonlinear analysis
includes pre and post-buckling behavior for any degree ot nonlinearity
due to large displacements and large rotations but
small strains. The formulation includes some recent developments
of piate and shell theories, automatic solution strategies for the
nonlinear equations; all adapted for implementation in mini and
micro-computers with virtual memory.
