Abstract
A study is made of problems on the statics of circular toroidal shells made of nonlinear elastic orthotropic composites. The study is conducted on the basis of the method of successive approximation, the variational-difference method, and the method of Lagrangian multipliers. The parameters of the circular torus are varied within broad ranges of values in the calculations. Numerical results are presented in the form of tables and graphs and are analyzed.
