Lecture
Membrane Theory of Shells
Description
This lecture covers the application of the membrane theory of shells to analyze membrane forces in thin shell structures under various loadings, focusing on cylindrical and spherical shell roofs. The instructor explains how to parametrize the mid-surface of the shells, derive covariant base vectors, and equilibrium equations. Emphasis is placed on understanding the membrane forces under self-weight and the load per unit area of the shell surface.
