This book guides the reader into nonlinear modelling of shell structures in applications where advanced composite and complex biological materials must be described with great accuracy. To achieve this goal, Marco Amabili guides the readers through nonlinear shell theories, nonlinear vibrations, buckling, composite and functionally graded materials, hyperelasticity, viscoelasticity, nonlinear damping, rubber and soft biological materials. Advanced nonlinear shell theories, not available in any other book, are fully derived in a simple notation and are ready to be implemented in numerical codes. A blend of the most advanced theory and experimental results is the book's other unique feature. It is a must-read for graduate students and researchers in applied mathematics and engineering, especially those interested in mechanics, aeronautics, civil structures, materials, bioengineering, and solid matter at different scales.
