The boundary-value problem of deformation of a rotationally symmetric shell is stated in terms of a new system of first-order ordinary differential equations which can be derived for any consistent linear bending theory of shells. The dependent variables contained in this system of equations are those quantities which appear in the natural boundary conditions on a rotationally symmetric edge of a shell of revolution. A numerical method of solution which combines the advantages of both the direct integration and the finite-difference approach is developed for the analysis of rotationally symmetric shells. This method eliminates the loss of accuracy encountered in the usual application of the direct integration approach to the analysis of shells. For the purpose of illustration, stresses and displacements of a pressurized torus are calculated and detailed numerical results are presented.

Energy expressions and the related equilibrium equations and natural boundary conditions for the determination of the stresses in and displacements of uniform, thin-walled cylinders of arbitrary cross section loaded in an arbitrary manner by surface and edge forces and moments are presented. The derivations are based upon the Kirchhoff-Love assumptions of the classical theory of shells and are performed to within a degree of accuracy employed by Flügge in his derivation of the equilibrium equations applicable to circular cylindrical shells; hence, in terms of stress resultants, the exact, small-deflection equilibrium equations are obtained. Methods of simplification of the relations derived and of solution of the differential equations presented are indicated.

The paper proposes the numerical method of solution the problems of calculation the stress state in thick-walled cylinders and spheres from physically nonlinear inhomogeneous material. The urgency of solved problem due to the change of mechanical properties of materials under the influence of different physical fields (temperature, humidity, radiation, etc.). The deformation diagram describes the three-parameter formula. The numerical method used the method of successive approximations. The results of numerical calculation are compared with the test analytical solutions obtaining the authors with some restrictions on diagram parameters. The obtained results can be considered quite satisfactory.

We study fractional variational problems in terms of a generalized fractional integral with Lagrangians depending on classical derivatives, generalized fractional integrals and derivatives. We obtain necessary optimality conditions for the basic and isoperimetric problems, as well as natural boundary conditions for free-boundary value problems. The fractional action-like variational approach (FALVA) is extended and some applications to physics discussed.

For a Podolsky-axionic electrodynamics, we compute the interaction potential within the structure of the gauge-invariant but path-dependent variables formalism. The result is equivalent to that of axionic electrodynamics from a new noncommutative approach, up to first-order in θ.

An analytical procedure employing the general theory of shells of revolution and finite element method is presented to examine the stress patterns along the convolution of the pipeline expansion bellows under axial compression. A simple three-node axisymmetric shell element is used to compute axial and circumferential stress components. Three example problems which include two corrugated-pipe-type and one U-type bellows, have been analyzed. Comparison of the present numerical results with the experimentally procured data from the open literature illustrates the reliability, accuracy, elaborateness and versatility of this approach.
