Abstract

Finite axisymmetric deformation of a thin toroidal shell under action of internal pressure is studied. The shell is reinforced by two systems of threads located along parallels and meridians and is considered as anisotropic membrane. The nonlinear theory of membranes is used. To find membrane deformations and displacements the system of ordinary differential equations of the fourth order is delivered. The method of asymptotic integration in the case when the meridian radius is much smaller than the parallel one is elaborated. Asymptotic and numerical results are compared.
