Abstract
Large amplitude free vibrations of a clamped orthotropic shallow spher ical shell resting on a Kerr type elastic foundation are investigated. A detailed parametric study is conducted involving shell geometry and three foundation parameters. The effects of these variables on the fr equency-amplitude characteristics are plotted and discussed. It is not iced that shells with immovable clamped edges are more prone and vulne rable to changes in the above mentioned parameters than those with mov able clamped edges.
