Abstract
The theory of shells describes the behaviour (displacement, deformation and stress analysis) of thin bodies (thin walled structures) defined in the neighbourhood of a curved surface in the 3D space. Most of contemporary theories of shells use differential geometry as a mathematical tools and tensor analysis for notations. Examples are [1, 2, 3].
