Bibliography: pages 132-135.<br>In deriving asymptotic error estimates for a conforming finite element analyses of static thin elastic shell problems, the French mathematician Ciarlet (1976) proposed an approach to the formulation of such problems. The formulation he uses is based on classical shell theory making use of Kirchhoff-Koiter assumptions. The shell problem is posed in two-dimensional space to which the real problem, in three-dimensional space, is related by a mapping of the domain of the problem to the shell mid-surface.

The finite element process is now used almost routinely as a tool of engineering analysis.

We present a new technique for simulating high resolution surface wrinkling deformations of composite objects consisting of a soft interior and a harder skin. We combine high resolution thin shells with coarse finite element lattices and define frequency based constraints that allow the formation of wrinkles with properties matching those predicted by the physical parameters of the composite object. Our two-way coupled model produces the expected wrinkling behavior without the computational expense of a large number of volumetric elements to model deformations under the surface. We use C1 qu

The Analytical Strip Method (ASM) for the analysis of thin cylindrical shells is presented in this dissertation. The system of three governing differential equations for the cylindrical shell are reduced to a single eighth order partial differential equation (PDE) in terms of a potential function. The PDE is solved as a single series form of the potential function, from which the displacement and force quantities are determined. The solution is applicable to isotropic, generally orthotropic, and laminated shells. Cylinders may have simply supported edges, clamped edges, free edges, or edges su

The introduction of creases into thin sheets has a dramatic effect on their global mechanical properties.

Creases have typically been modelled as singular hinge lines, often accompanied by a torsional spring to provide some opening resistance; however, the appropriate stiffness of these springs is unclear. In reality, creases have a discrete geometry based on the method they were formed. This dissertation investigates the flexural behaviour of a cr
