in this study, the free vibration of partially fluid-filled laminated composite circular cylindrical shell with arbitrary boundary conditions has been investigated by using rayleigh-ritz method. the analysis has been carried out with strain-displacement relations based on love’s thin shell theory and the contained fluid is assumed irrotational, incompressible and inviscid. after determining the...

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 ...

In this paper a study on the vibration of thin cylindrical shells with ring supports and made of functionally graded materials (FGMs) composed of stainless steel and nickel is presented. The properties are graded in the thickness direction according to a volume fraction power-law distribution.The cylindrical shells with ring supports which are arbitrarily placed along the shell and impose zero ...

An analytical investigation on the nonlinear response of doubly curved panels constructed from homogeneous face sheets and carbon nanotube reinforced composite (CNTRC) core subjected to external pressure in thermal environments is presented this paper. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are into layer through uniform or functionally graded distributions. The properties constituents assumed be temperature ...

Structural optimization using computational tools has become a major research field in recent years. The paper deals with a sizing optimization analysis of laminated circular cylindrical shell. For thin-walled shells, the classical shell theory is capable of accurately predicting the shell behavior. The weight minimization subjected to displacement constraint within the numerical optimization o...

The shell problem and its asymptotic are investigated. A connection between the asymptotic behavior of the shell energy and real Interpolation Theory is established. Although only the Koiter shells have been considered, the same procedure can be used for other models, such as Naghdi’s one, for example.

We deal with initial-boundary value problems describing vertical vibrations of viscoelastic von Kármán-Donnell shells with a rigid inner obstacle. The short memory (Kelvin-Voigt) material is considered. A weak formulation of the problem is in the form of the hyperbolic variational inequality. We solve the problem using the penalization method.
