The Koiter shell equation in a coordinate free description

We give an alternate description of Koiter's shell equation that does not depend on the special mid surface coordinates, but uses differential operators defined on the mid surface.:1. Introduction
2. Basic differential geometry
3. The strain tensor and its simplifications
4. Linearization to small strain and coordinate free description
5. The resulting Koiter energy
