ABSTRACT
This short paper deals with refraction phenomenon of singularities in thin shells with edges. We clearly exhibit refraction phenomenon of singularities crossing an edge formed by two shells whose middle surfaces are hyperbolic. It appears that singularities cross the edge and propagate along characteristic curves without loss of regularity.
