Abstract
We study the accuracy of the lowest-order bending theory of shells, derived from an asymptotic expansion of the three-dimensional theory of elasticity , by comparing the results of this theory for a cylindrical shell with clam ped ends with the results of a solution to the three-dimensional problem. T he results are also compared with those of some commonly used engineering s hell theories.
