This chapter develops two-dimensional membrane theory as a leading order small-thickness approximation to the three-dimensional theory for thin sheets. Applications to axisymmetric equilibria are developed in detail, and applied to describe the phenomenon of bulge propagation in cylinders.

Kirchhoff's kinematic hypothesis that leads to an approximate two-dimensional theory of bending of elastic plates consists in assuming that the displacements have the form [1]In general, the Dirichlet and Neumann problems for the equilibrium equations obtained on the basis of (1.1) cannot be solved by the boundary integral equation method both inside and outside a bounded domain because the corresponding matrix of fundamental solutions does not vanish at infinity [2]. However, as we show in this paper, the method is still applicable if the asymptotic behaviour of the solution is suitably restricted.
