Static and free vibration analysis of anisotropic doubly-curved shells with general boundary conditions

Vibration analysis of FGM cylindrical shells under various boundary conditions

In this paper, a unified analytical approach is proposed to investigate vibrational behavior of functionally graded shells. Theoretical formulation is established based on Sanders’ thin shell theory. The modal forms are assumed to have the axial dependency in the form of Fourier series whose derivatives are legitimized using Stokes transformation. Material properties are assumed to be graded in...

Vibration analysis of functionally graded cylindrical shells with different boundary conditions subjected to thermal loads

In the present work, study of the vibration of a functionally graded (FG) cylindrical shell made up of stainless steel, zirconia, and nickel is presented. Free vibration analysis is presented for FG cylindrical shells with simply supported-simply supported and clamped–clamped boundary condition based on temperature independent material properties. The equations of motion are derived by Hamilton...

Free and Forced Vibration Analysis of Composite Laminated Conical Shells under Different Boundary Conditions Via Galerkin Method

In this paper, natural frequency and response of forced vibration of composite laminated conical shells under different boundary conditions are investigated. To this end, equations of Donnell's thin shell theory are used as governing equations. The analytical Galerkin method together with beam mode shapes as weighting functions is employed to solve the problem. Due to importance of boundary con...
