The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 1.4 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 1.3 The Immediacy Index is the average number of times an article is cited in the year it is published. The journal Immediacy Index indicates how quickly articles in a journal are cited. Immediacy Index: 2.2 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00034 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.46 SJR: 0.333 SNIP: 0.606 CiteScore™:: 3.1 H-Index: 31

ABSTRACT

Generalized elasticity coefficients including membrane-bending coupling terms appear in thin (i.e., with very small relative thickness) shell theory when the material is heterogeneous. In this paper, we give a method to compute coefficients in the case of multilayered shells. A new program is implemented in the finite element code Modulef The numerical experiments are concerned with inhibited (i.e., such that the middle surface S with kinematic boundary conditions is geometrically rigid or, equivalently, that the boundary conditions are such that S does not admit “pure bending,” i.e., displacements keeping the length invariant on S) multilayered thin shells with hyperbolic middle surface involving a composite material with unidirectional fibers. The model considered here is that deduced from asymptotic theory. Two different cases of loading are considered. We observe that the presence of anisotropy modifies the quantitative results obtained for an isotropic homogeneous material, but not the qualitative trends of the solutions.
