Doubly Curved

Effects of curvature upon the vibration characteristics of doubly curved shallow shells are assessed in this paper. Boundary conditions of the shell are generally specified in terms of distributed elastic restraints along the edges. The classical homogeneous boundary supports can be easily simulated by setting the stiffnesses of restraining springs to either zero or infinite. Vibration problems of the shell are solved by a modified Fourier series method that each of the displacements is invariably expressed as a simple trigonometric series which converges uniformly and acceleratedly over the solution domain. All the unknown expansion coefficients are treated equally as a set of independent generalized coordinates and solved using the Rayleigh-Ritz technique. The current method provides a unified solution to the vibration problems of curved shallow shells involving different geometric properties and boundary conditions with no need of modifying the formulations and solution procedures. Extensive tabular and graphical results are presented to show the curvature effects on the natural frequencies of the shell with various boundary conditions.

Fundamental Frequencies

A review of the literature reveals that information regarding fundamental frequencies and mode shapes of shallow laminated composite hypar shells with practical civil engineering boundary conditions is not available. The present investigation aims to fill this gap by applying an eight-noded isoparametric shell element as the tool. Numerical experiments are carried out for different parametric variations including boundary conditions and stacking orders to obtain the fundamental frequencies and mode shapes. Some of the results are used for validating the correctness of the present approach by comparing with the existing benchmark, while the other results are studied meticulously to extract a set of meaningful conclusions regarding the free vibration characteristics of composite shallow hypar shells.

Space Approach

Exact solutions of rectangular laminated composite plates with different boundary conditions are studied. The Le´vy-type solutions of the classical, first-order and third-order shear deformation theories are developed using the state-space approach. The finite-element solutions for the three theories are also computed and compared with the exact solutions for various boundary conditions.

In this paper, the free vibration and buckling responses of laminated composite and sandwich microbeams with arbitrary boundary conditions are investigated. The governing equations based on the modified couple stress theory are derived by using the total potential energy of a microbeam and employing a transverse shear-normal deformable beam theory. Extensive analysis results in terms of dimensionless fundamental frequencies and dimensionless critical buckling loads are introduced for various boundary conditions, aspect ratios, orthotropy ratios, fiber orientation angles, thickness to material length scale parameter ratios, and core thickness to face layer thickness ratios.
