Abstract. In the present work, a two-dimensional model based on higher order Layer-Wise (LW) approach is presented for static and dynamic analysis of doubly-curved anisotropic shell structures. The Equivalent Single Layer (ESL) methodology also obtained as particular case LW. Each lamina stacking sequence modelled an continuum. fundamental equations account both surface concentrated loads, well...

In recent years, interval constraint-based solvers have shown their ability to efficiently solve complex instances of non-linear numerical CSPs. However, most of the working systems are designed to deliver point-wise solutions with an arbitrary accuracy. This works generally well for systems with isolated solutions but less well when there is a continuum of feasible points (e.g. underconstraine...
