The vibration and stability of non-homogeneous orthotropic conical shells with clamped edges subjected to uniform external pressures

In this paper an analytical procedure is given to study the free vibration and stability characteristics of homogeneous and non-homogeneous orthotropic truncated and complete conical shells with clamped edges under uniform external pressures. The non-homogeneous orthotropic material properties of conical shells vary continuously in the thickness direction. The governing equations according to the Donnell’s theory are solved by Galerkin’s method and critical hydrostatic and lateral pressures and fundamental natural frequencies have been found analytically. The appropriate formulas for homogeneous orthotropic and isotropic conical shells and for cylindrical shells made of homogeneous and non-homogeneous, orthotropic and isotropic materials are found as a special case. Several examples are presented to show the accuracy and efficiency of the formulation. The closed-form solutions are verified by accurate different solutions. Finally, the influences of the non-homogeneity, orthotropy and the variations of conical shells characteristics on the critical lateral and hydrostatic pressures and natural frequencies are investigated, when Young’s moduli and density vary together and separately. The results obtained for homogeneous cases are compared with their counterparts in the literature.

A numerical study on the free vibration analysis for laminated conical and cylindrical shell is presented. The analysis is carried out using Love's first approximation thin shell theory and solved using discrete singular convolution (DSC) method. Numerical results in free vibrations of laminated conical and cylindrical shells are presented graphically for different geometric and material parameters. Free vibrations of isotropic cylindrical shells and annular plates are treated as special cases. The effects of circumferential wave number, number of layers on frequencies characteristics are also discussed. The numerical results show that the present method is quite easy to implement, accurate and efficient for the problems considered.     

Analytical solution for cylindrical thin shells with normally intersecting nozzles due to external moments on the ends of shells

The stress analysis based on the theory of a thin shell is carried out for cylindrical shells with normally intersecting nozzles subjected to external moment loads on the ends of shells with a large diameter ratio(ρ ₀ «0. 8). Instead of the Donnell shallow shell equation, the modified Morley equation, which is applicable toρ ₀(R/T)^1/2 »1, is used for the analysis of the shell with cutout. The solution in terms of displacement function for the nozzle with a nonplanar end is based on the Goldenveizer equation. The boundary forces and displacements at the intersection are all transformed from Gaussian coordinates (α, β) on the shell, or Gaussian coordinates (ζ, θ) on the nozzle into three-di-mensional cylindrical coordinates(ρ,θ, z). Their expressions on the intersecting curve are periodic functions ofθ and expanded in Fourier series. Every harmonic of Fourier coefficients of boundary forces and displacements are obtained by numerical quadrature. The results obtained are in agreement with those from the three-dimensional finite element method and experiments.

Mechanical stability of functionally graded stiffened cylindrical shells

This paper is concerned with the elastic buckling of stiffened cylindrical shells by rings and stringers made of functionally graded materials subjected to axial compression loading. The shell properties are assumed to vary continuously through the thickness direction. Fundamental relations, the equilibrium and stability equations are derived using the Sander’s assumption. Resulting equations are employed to obtain the closed-form solution for the critical buckling loads. The results show that the inhomogeneity parameter and geometry of shell significantly affect the critical buckling loads. The analytical results are compared and validated using the finite element method.     

The boundary integral equation method applied to shallow membrane shells of positive Gaussian curvature

The boundary integral equation method (BIEM) is developed for the analysis of shallow membrane shells with positive Gaussian curvatures. Shells with constant thickness and constant curvatures are considered. In the infinite domain, fundamental solutions are obtained which correspond to generalized concentrated tangential forces in the x and y coordinate directions. The Betti-Maxwell reciprocal theorem and Green's second identity are used to obtain the boundary integral equations of the solution presented.This approach, which is applied for the first time in membrane shell theory, seems to be a powerful alternative to domain type methods. Shells with various boundary conditions, loadings and arbitrary plan forms can be considered. It is also possible to add the effects of thermal fields and openings in the shells.The potential of the method is demonstrated by means of a worked example.

Postbuckling characteristics of angle-ply laminated truncated circular conical shells

The postbuckling characteristics of the angle-ply laminated composite conical shells subjected to the torsion, the external pressure, the axial compression, and the thermal loading considering uniform temperature change are studied using the semi-analytical finite element approach. The finite element formulation is based on the first-order shear deformation theory and the field consistency principle. The variations in the stiffness coefficients along the meridional direction due to the changes in the ply-angle and the ply-thickness of the filament wound conical shells are incorporated in the finite element formulation. The nonlinear governing equations are solved using the Newton–Raphson iteration procedure coupled with the displacement control method to trace the prebuckling followed by the postbuckling equilibrium path. The presence of asymmetric perturbation in the form of a small magnitude load spatially proportional to the linear buckling mode shape is considered to initiate the bifurcation of the shell deformation. The influence of semi-cone angle, ply-angle and number of circumferential waves on the prebuckling/postbuckling response of the anti-symmetric angle-ply laminated circular conical shells is investigated.     

Effects of Cone Angles on Nonlinear Vibration Responses of Functionally Graded Shells北大核心CSCD

The nonlinear vibration responses of functionally graded materials (FGMs) shells with different cone angles under external loads were studied. Firstly, the Voigt model was employed to describe the physical properties along the thickness direction of FGMs conical shells. Then, the motion equations were derived based on the 1st-order shear deformation theory, the von Kármán geometric nonlinearity and Hamilton’s principle. Next, the Galerkin method was applied to discretize the motion equations and the governing equations were simplified into a 1DOF nonlinear vibration differential equation under Volmir’s assumption. Finally, the nonlinear motion equations were solved with the harmonic balance method and the Runge-Kutta method, and the amplitude frequency response characteristic curves of the FGMs conical shells were obtained. The effects of different material distribution functions and different ceramic volume fraction exponents on the amplitude frequency response curves of conical shells were discussed. The bifurcation diagrams of conical shells with different cone angles, as well as time process diagrams and phase diagrams for different excitation amplitudes, were described. The motion characteristics were characterized by Poincaré maps. The results show that, the FGMs conical shells present the nonlinear characteristics of hardening springs. The chaotic motions of the FGMs conical shells are restrained and not prone to motion instability with the increase of the cone angle. The FGMs conical shell present a process from the periodic motion to the multi-periodic motion and then to chaos with the increase of the excitation amplitude. © 2022 Editorial Office of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics.

Comparative analysis of two algorithms for numerical solution of nonlinear static problems for multilayer anisotropic shells of revolution. 1. Account of transverse shear

The discussion focuses on two numerical algorithms for solving the nonlinear static problems of multilayer composite shells of revolution, namely the algorithm based on the discrete orthogonalization method and the algorithm based on the finite element method with a local linear approximation in the meridian direction. The material of each layer of the shell is assumed to be linearly elastic and anisotropic (nonorthotropic). A feature of this approach is that the displacements of the face surfaces of the shell are chosen as unknown functions, i.e., the functions which allows us to formulate the kinematic boundary conditions on these surfaces. As an example, a cross-ply cylindrical shell subjected to uniform axisymmetric tension is considered. It is shown that the algorithms elaborated correctly describe the local distribution of the stress tensor over the shell thickness without an expensive software based on the 3D anisotropic theory of elasticity.Tambov State Technical University, Tambov, Russia.

Comparative analysis of two algorithms for numerical solution of nonlinearstatic problems for multilayered anisotropic shells of revolution 2. Account of transverse compression

Two algorithms for numerical solution of static problems for multilayer anisotropic shells of revolution are discussed. The first algorithm is based on a differential approach using the method of discrete orthogonalization, and the second one—on the finite element method with linear local approximation in the meridional direction. It is assumed that the layers of the shell are made of linearly elastic, anisotropic materials. As the unknown functions, six displacements of the shell are chosen, which often simplifies the definition of static problems for multilayer shells. The calculation of a cross-ply cylindrical shell stretched in the axial direction is considered. It is shown that taking account of the transverse compression, anisotropy, and geometrical nonlinearity is important for the given class of problems.Tambov State Technical University, Tambov, Russia.
