Analysis and Design of Shell Structures

This document outlines the course contents for the analysis and design of shell structures. It covers 7 topics: 1) an introduction to shell structures and theories, 2) bending theory of cylindrical shells, 3) membrane theory of shells of revolution, 4) bending theory of shells of revolution under axisymmetric loading, 5) membrane theory of shells with general shapes, 6) analysis of multi-shell structures for bending and membrane stresses, and 7) stability problems in shell structures. It also lists 6 references for further reading on the topics.
