Abstract This new work aims to develop a full coupled thermomechanical method including both the temperature profile
and displacements as primary unknowns of the model. This generic full coupled 3D exact shell model permits the
thermal stress investigation of laminated isotropic, composite and sandwich structures. Cylindrical and spherical
panels, cylinders and plates are analyzed in orthogonal mixed curved reference coordinates. The 3D equilibrium
relations and the 3D Fourier heat conduction equation for spherical shells are coupled and they trivially can be
simplified in those for plates and cylindrical panels. The exponential matrix methodology is used to… More >
