Abstract

The asymptotic behaviour of solutions of three-dimensional nonlinear elastodynamics in a thin shell is considered, as the thickness hh of the shell tends to zero. Given the appropriate scalings of the applied force and of the initial data in terms of h,h, it's verified that three-dimensional solutions of the nonlinear elastodynamic equations converge to solutions of the time-dependent von K\'arm\'an equations or dynamic linear equations for shell of arbitrary geometry.
