Governing equations are developed for the nonlinear response of an infinite, elastic, circular cylindrical shell submerged in an infinite fluid medium and excited by a transverse, transient acoustic wave. These equations derive from circumferential Fourier-series decomposition of the field quantities appearing in appropriate energy functionals, and from application of the “residual potential formulation” for rigorous treatment of the fluid-structure interaction. Extensive numerical results are presented that provide understanding of the phenomenology involved.

Abstract The backscattering of a normal incident plane acoustic wave by a stiffened cylindrical shell is considered. The studied cylindrical shell is made of stainless steel and its internal to external radius ratio is b/a = 0.98. The shell submerged in water is strengthened by an internal plate of the same material and thickness, which is diametrically soldered. As for the unstiffened shell, A wave (Scholte-Stoneley wave) and S0 wave (first symmetrical Lamb wave) are detected in the frequency range investigated (50–200 ka where k is the wave number in water). On the contrary, the presence of the plate into the tube allows the detection of A0 wave (flexural Lamb wave) whereas it is not observed for the unstiffened shell, owing to the attenuation of the wave during the propagation around the tube. In particularl, A0 wave could be reflected on the junction with enough energy to re-emit in water. Furthermore, wave type conversions are allowed by way of the junctions: S0–A0 wave conversions are observed.

An infinite, elastic, circular cylindrical shell submerged in an infinite fluid medium is engulfed by a transverse, transient acoustic wave. The governing equations for modal shell response are reduced through the application of a new method of solution to two simultaneous equations in time; these equations are particularly amenable to solution by machine computation. Numerical results are presented for the first six modes of a uniform sandwich shell submerged in water and excited by a plane step-wave. These results are then used to evaluate the accuracy of a number of approximations which have been employed previously to treat this and similar problems. The results are also used to compute displacement, velocity, and flexural strain responses at certain points in the sandwich shell.
