Abstract
The static deformations and the natural frequencies of doubly-curved composite shells are computed by the first-order theory of Donnell. A meshless method based on wavelet collocation is used for discretization of the equations of motion and the boundary conditions. Several examples demonstrate the high accuracy of the present method in the prediction of the static deformations and the natural frequencies.
