A review of functionally graded thick cylindrical and conical shells
Authors
Abstract:
Thick shells have attracted much attention in recent years as intelligent and functional graded materials because of their unique properties. In this review paper, some critical issues and problems in the development of thick shells made from Functionally graded piezoelectric material (FGPM) are discussed. This review has been conducted on various types of methods which are available for thick shell analysis and mainly focuses on elasticity theories, shear deformation theory, simplified theories and mixed theories since they were widely used in the modeling of FG thick shells. It is expected that this comprehensive study will be very beneficial to everyone involved or interested in the shell models.

Using Donnell-type shell theory a simple and exact procedure is presented for linear buckling analysis of functionally graded conical shells under axial compressive loads and external pressure. The solution is in the form of a power series in terms of a particularly convenient coordinate system. By analyzing the buckling of a series of conical shells, under various boundary conditions and diffe...
