In this chapter we discuss the Cosserat-type theories of plates and shells. We call Cosserat-
type shell theories various theories of shells based on the consideration of a shell base …

We consider the impact of a ring crack within a rotating hollow cylinder of fixed height under
axisymmetric (torsion) loading. The form of the displacement is obtained from the equation of …

This paper contains an extensive global treatment of radial motions of compressible
nonlinearly viscoelastic cylindrical and spherical shells under time-dependent pressures. It …

Abstract The classical Couette–Taylor problem is to describe the motion of a viscous
incompressible fluid in the region between two rigid coaxial cylinders, which rotate at …
