Abstract In this paper, based on the nonlinear thin shell theory, a geometrically nonlinear formulation using the total Lagrangian approach for rotational shells, as well as rotational shells on the Winkler-type elastic foundation, is presented. The displacements of the middle surface are approached by a B-spline function. All nonlinear terms of membrane strains are reserved. Two cases in which the arc length as well as ordinate is used as the coordinate parameter along meridional direction are discussed at the same time.
