This title features new boundary element formulations for the solution of bending problems in plates and shells. These are based on modified Reissner plate and two-dimensional plane stress governing equations, which are coupled due to the curvature of the shell. Dual boundary element formulations for the analysis of crack problems in plates and shells and a multi-region boundary element formulation for modeling assembled plate-structures are also included. The solutions presented by the author compare favourably with existing analytical, numerical and experimental results.
