A mathematical model of Koiter's type for a nonlinearly elastic “almost spherical” shell
[Un modèle mathématique du type de Koiter pour une coque non linéairement élastique « presque sphérique »]
Comptes Rendus. Mathématique, Volume 354 (2016) no. 12, pp. 1241-1247.

Nous proposons un nouveau modèle non linéaire de coques du type de Koiter, c'est-à-dire combinant les déformations membranaires et en flexion, qui peut être utilisé lorsque la surface moyenne de la coque non déformée est « presque sphérique », au sens que sa courbure gaussiene Kε et sa courbure moyenne Hε satisfont Kε=Hε2+O(ε2), où 2ε désigne l'épaisseur de la coque.

We propose a new nonlinear shell model of Koiter's type, i.e. one that combines membrane and flexural strains, which can be used in the case where the middle surface of the undeformed shell is “almost spherical”, in the sense that its Gaussian curvature Kε and mean curvature Hε satisfy Kε=Hε2+O(ε2), where 2ε denotes the thickness of the shell.
