A Refined Closed-Form Solution for the Large Deflections of Alekseev-Type Annular Membranes Subjected to Uniformly Distributed Transverse Loads: Simultaneous Improvement of Out-of-Plane Equilibrium Equation and Geometric Equation

The Alekseev-type annular membranes here refer to annular membranes fixed at outer edges and connected with a movable, weightless, stiff, con-centric, circular thin plate at inner edges, which were proposed originally by Alekseev for bearing centrally concentrated loads. They are used to bear the pr...
