ABSTRACT
The Koiter shell was introduced by [98]. In this model the second fundamental form of the middle surface goes into the change of curvature tensor which makes its analysis much more complicated than that of the shallow shell. We are then faced with new tasks: to derive the dynamic system starting from the strain tensor and the curvature tensor and to set up appropriate geometric conditions for controllability/stabilization. Multiplier identities are established and exact controllability from boundary is presented.
