A direct approach to nonlinear shells with application to surface-substrate interactions

Miroslav Šilhavý

Vol. 1 (2013), No. 2, 211–232
Abstract

The paper develops a direct, intrinsic approach to the equilibrium equations of bodies coated by a thin film with a nonlinear shell like structure. The forms of the equations in the reference and actual configurations are considered. The equations are shown to coincide with those obtained by using coordinate systems on the film or on the thin shell.

Keywords
thin films, nonlinear shells, surface geometry, variation of surface energy, equilibrium equations
