This book is a compilation of ten technical archival publications describing the analysis of various icosahedrons, primarily of a nonlinear nature. Static and dynamic characteristics are considered, and other covered topics range from large displacements and rotations to the consideration of chaotic behaviour. There is a great deal of experimentation included in several papers, from a quasi-static point of view as well as that of dynamics.

The increasing use of composite materials requires a better understanding of the behavior of laminated plates and shells. Large displacements and rotations, as well as shear deformations, must be included in the analysis. Since linear theories of shells and plates are no longer adequate for the analysis and design of composite structures, more refined theories are now used for such structures.
This text develops, in a systematic manner, the overall concepts of the nonlinear analysis of shell structures. The authors start with a survey of theories for the analysis of plates and shells with...
