THE PRESENT STUDY ANALYZES THE BENDING OF A SIMPLE ELECTRO-ELASTIC CYLINDRICAL SHELL BY THE COMPOUND MATRIX METHOD. THE CROSS-SECTION OF THE CIRCULAR CYLINDRICAL SHELL IS A NON-CIRCULAR CURVED SHAPE, WITH A FUNCTION OF AND THE MODE NUMBER, WHERE AND ARE THE PRE-DEFORMATION INNER AND OUTER RADII OF THE CYLINDRICAL SHELL, AND IS THE RATIO OF THE DEFORMED INNER RADIUS TO . IN THE FIRST STEP, A NUMERICAL MODEL OF THE PROBLEM IS DEVELOPED TO OBTAIN SPECIFIC DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS. THE MODELING YIELDS A SYSTEM OF TWO ORDINARY DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS WITH THREE BOUNDARY CONDITIONS OF THE SAME TYPE. NEXT, IT IS SHOWN THAT THE DEPENDENCE OF TO HAS A BOUNDARY LAYER STRUCTURE. SIMPLE NUMERICAL OBSERVATIONS WERE MADE FOR BIFURCATION CONDITIONS. THE ANALYSIS IS, IN FACT, BASED ON THE VARIATIONS OF THE INNER AND OUTER RADII AND , ASSUMING AND , AND BASED ON THE BIFURCATION OF AND RATIOS WITH RESPECT TO RADIUS. FOR THIS PURPOSE, THE COMPOUND MATRIX METHOD IS USED TO SHOW THE VALIDITY OF THE ARGUMENTS.
