Methods of calculating and estimating the load-bearing capacity and mass perfection of structures of composite materials

A solution has been obtained to the problem of determining the state of stress and strain of laminated shell structures of composite materials with an accuracy that suffices for practical purposes. The state of stress and strain of such structures can be represented as momentless or as the edge effect. Using the formulas developed, the stress components in layers of structures for the class of design arrangements under consideration and for a number of boundary conditions can be obtained.
