Intersection of Shells of Revolution

本项目旨在开发更有效的分析相交网壳结构应力和变形的方法。这种结构存在于管道系统、空间结构、近海钻井设施和自行车中。相互作用经常是重要故障部位的位置。对于这些结构，有限元程序本质上是低效的。该项目是分析方法和数值方法的结合。

This project is to develop more efficient methods of analysis of stress and deflections in intersecting shell structures. Such structures occur i npiping systems, space structures, off shore drilling installations and bicycles. Interactions have frequently been the locations of significant failure sites. Finite element codes are intrinsically inefficient for these structures. The project is a combination of analytical and numerial methods.
