Abstract

The paper studies the stress-strain state of flat elastic isotropic thin-walled shell structures in the framework of the S. P. Timoshenko shear model with pivotally supported edges. The stress-strain state of shell structures is described by a system of five second-order nonlinear partial differential equations under given static boundary conditions with respect to generalized displacements. The system of equations under study is linear in terms of tangential displacements, rotation angles, and nonlinear in terms of normal displacement. To find a solution to the system that satisfies the given static boundary conditions, integral representations for generalized displacements containing arbitrary holomorphic functions are used. Finding holomorphic functions is one of the main and difficult points in the proposed study. The integral representations constructed in this way allow us to reduce the original problem to a single nonlinear operator equation with respect to the deflection, the solvability of which is established using the principle of compressed maps.
