The nonlinear buckling and postbuckling of eccentrically oblique-stiffened doubly curved shallow functionally graded shells is investigated based on improved Donnell equations. The improved Lekhnitskii smeared stiffeners technique is employed to found the stiffness matrix of the stiffened shells. The shells are reinforced by eccentrically oblique stiffeners with an arbitrary inclination angle. Using the Galerkin method, an analytical approximate solution for the deflection of reinforced FGM doubly curved shallow shells is obtained. The influence of geometrical parameters, oblique stiffeners, and temperature on the postbuckling behavior of the shells is analyzed.
