Résumé :	Many circular elastic membranes used in practice involve nonuniform thickness, which is a main source of error that affects the functionality of the membrane. An analytical framework is developed in this paper to solve the deflection profile of a pressurized circular membrane with nonuniform thickness. The nonlinear solution is established within the deformed configuration. The results are compared with finite-element simulation with good agreement.
