Abstract

The paper presents the theoretical background to a numerical method for calculating the meridian of axisymmetric stressed shapes of infinitesimal hexagonal grids. Two types of stressing are assumed, one with a pure tension and another when tension is combined with twist. Also some results of an illustrative example are given.
