Shell structures predominantly resist loads on them by direct compression. That is without bending or flexure. Since most materials are more effective in compression than in bending, shell structures result in lesser thickness than flat structures.

shell because it is hollow and therefore represents the form of a shell which is also recognized as a shell structure
No, a ball is not considered a shell structure. A shell structure is typically defined as a thin, curved material that provides strength and stability while enclosing a space, like a dome or a shell of an egg. A ball, on the other hand, is a solid object with a uniform shape and does not have the thin, hollow characteristics of a shell structure.

From the standpoint of structure the opposite of a shell is what is inside the shell, or the interior.In biology, the opposite or reverse structure from a shell is a skeleton. (A shell being an exoskeleton.) On the other hand, the contrasting structure in animals that do not have shells could be the skin, an opposite or alternative type of exterior.
A car can be considered a shell structure, as the body of the car is designed to provide structural support and protection to the occupants. The body panels of the car generally act as a shell, distributing external forces across the frame to ensure structural integrity and safety.
an igloo is a shell structure since it is not filled it is only a shell
It's a shell. And because it is hallow Inside. A shell structure is a Structure that is strong hollow And light in size.
Yes, a teacup is a shell structure. A shell structure is defined as a structure that keeps it shape and can support loads within it (as tea in a teacup).
A shell structure supports its self and a frame structure does not support it self.

I think it is a shell structure.

no
YES
It is a shell because the structure is with a hallow, curved shape
There is a general tendency to form an octet, to have a stable structure.
