Von Kármán theories for thin elastic shells subject to pressure
Abstract
The variational derivation of two-dimensional von Kármán shell energies from three-dimensional nonlinear elasticity is investigated in the presence of constant pressure loads. On the one hand, the paper extends the existing analysis of pressure-loaded plates to the curved setting of shells. On the other hand, it complements the classical variational derivation of shell theories by incorporating a nonlinear pressure force.
