TI - Static and Dynamic Analysis of Shell Panels Using the Analog Equation Method T2 - Computer Modeling in Engineering \& Sciences PY - 2000 VL - 1 IS - 2 SN - 1526-1506 AB - The Analog Equation Method is applied to the static and dynamic analysis of thin cylindrical shell panels. The Fl\"{u}gge theory is adopted. The three displacement components are established by solving two membrane and one plate bending problems under the same boundary conditions subjected to "appropriate'' (equivalent) fictitious loads. Numerical results are presented which illustrate the efficiency and the accuracy of the proposed method.
