Abstract In this study, a smart aperture antenna of spherical shape is modeled and experimentally verified. The antenna is modeled as a shallow spherical shell with a small hole at the apex for mounting. Starting from five governing equations of the shallow spherical shell, two governing equations are derived in terms of a stress function and the axial deflection using Reissner’s approach. As actuators, four PZT strip actuators are attached along the meridians separated by 90 degrees respectively. The forces developed by the actuators are considered as distributed pressure loads on the shell surface instead of being applied as boundary conditions like previous studies. This new way of applying the actuation force necessitates solving for the particular solutions in addition to the homogeneous solutions for the governing equations. The amount of deflections is evaluated from the calculated stress function and the axial deflection. In addition to the analytical model, a finite element model is developed to verify the analytical model on the various surface positions of the reflector. Finally, an actual working model of the reflector is built and tested in a zero gravity environment, and the results of the theoretical model are verified by comparing them to the experimental data.

Large amplitude free vibrations of a clamped shallow spherical shell on a Pasternak foundation are studied using a new approach by Banerjee, Datta, and Sinharay. Numerical results are obtained for movable as well as immovable clamped edges. The effects of geometric, material, and foundation parameters on relation between nondimensional frequency and amplitude have been investigated and plotted.

Rigid Circular Inclusion

The problem of a circular elastic inclusion in a thin pressurized spherical shell is considered. Using Reissner’s differential equations governing the behavior of a thin shallow spherical shell, the solutions for the two regions are obtained in terms of Bessel and Hankel functions. Particular cases of a rigid circular inclusion free to move with the shell and a clamped rigid circular inclusion are also considered. Results are presented in nondimensional form which will greatly facilitate their use in the design of spherical shells containing a rigid or an elastic inclusion.
