This paper deals with the nonlinear large deflection torsional buckling of functionally graded carbon nanotube (CNT) orthogonally reinforced composite cylindrical shells surrounded by Pasternak’s elastic foundations with the thermal effect. The shell is made by two layers where the polymeric matrix is reinforced by the CNTs in longitudinal and circumferential directions for outer and inner layers, respectively. The stability equation system is obtained by combining the Donnell’s shell theory, von Kármán nonlinearity terms, the circumferential condition in average sense and three-state solution form of deflection. The critical torsional buckling load, postbuckling load-deflection and the load-end shortening expressions are obtained by applying the Galerkin procedure. The effects of temperature change, foundation parameters, geometrical properties and CNT distribution law on the nonlinear behavior of cylindrical shell are numerically predicted. Especially, the effect of orthogonal reinforcement in comparison with longitudinal and circumferential reinforcement on the torsional buckling behavior of shells is observed.

This article investigates the flexural vibration of temperature-dependent and carbon nanotube-reinforced (CNTR) cylindrical shells made of functionally graded (FG) porous materials under various kinds of thermal loadings. The equivalent material properties of the cylindrical shell of concern are estimated using the rule of mixture. Both the cases of uniform distribution (UD) and FG distribution patterns of reinforcements are considered. Thermo-mechanical properties of the cylindrical shell are supposed to vary through the thickness and are estimated using the modified power-law rule, by which the porosities with even and uneven types are approximated. As the porosities occur inside the FG materials during the manufacturing process, it is necessary to consider their impact on the vibration behavior of shells. The present study is featured by consideration of different types of porosities in various CNT reinforcements under various boundary conditions in a single model. The governing equations and boundary conditions are developed using Hamilton's principle and solved by the generalized differential quadrature method. The accuracy of the present results is verified by comparison with existing ones and those by Navier's method. The results show that the length to radius ratio and temperature, as well as CNT reinforcement, porosity, thermal loading, and boundary conditions, play an important role on the natural frequency of the cylindrical shell of concern in thermal environment.

Based on Hamilton's principle, a new accurate solution methodology is developed to study the torsional bifurcation buckling of functionally graded cylindrical shells in a thermal environment. The effective properties of functionally graded materials (FGMs) are assumed to be functions of the ambient temperature as well as the thickness coordinate of the shell. By applying Donnell's shell theory, the lower-order Hamiltonian canonical equations are established, from which the eigenvalues and eigenvectors are solved as the critical loads and buckling modes of the shell of concern, respectively. The effects of various aspects, including the combined in-plane and transverse boundary conditions, dimensionless geometric parameters, FGM parameters and changing thermal surroundings, are discussed in detail. The results reveal that the in-plane axial edge supports do have a certain influence on the buckling loads. On the other hand, the transverse boundary conditions only affect extremely short shells. With increasing thermal loads, the material volume fraction has a different influence on the critical stresses. It is concluded that the optimized FGM mixtures to withstand thermal torsional buckling are Si 3 N 4/SUS304 and Al 2 O 3/SUS304 among the materials studied in this paper.

A new analytical approach to investigate the nonlinear buckling and postbuckling of the sandwich functionally graded circular cylindrical shells reinforced by ring and stringer or spiral stiffeners subjected to external pressure is presented in this paper. By employing the Donnell shell theory, the geometrical nonlinearity in Von Kármán sense and developed Lekhnitskii’s smeared stiffener technique, the governing equations of sandwich functionally graded circular cylindrical shells are derived. Resulting equations are solved by applying the Galerkin method to obtain the explicit expression of critical buckling external pressure load and postbuckling load–deflection curve. Effects of spiral stiffeners, thermal environment, external pressure, and geometrical parameters on nonlinear buckling behavior of sandwich functionally graded circular cylindrical shells are shown in numerical results.

The governing equations for analysing thermal vibration and dynamic buckling of eccentrically stiffened sandwich functionally graded cylindrical shells full filled with fluid and surrounded by elastic foundations in thermal environment are derived by using the classical shell theory, the geometrical nonlinearity in von Karman-Donnell sense, the smeared stiffener technique and Pasternak’s foundation model. Solutions of the problem are established according to the Galerkin’s method and Runge–Kutta method. The effects of fluid pressure, stiffeners, geometrical ratios, temperature and elastic foundation on the dynamic responses of shells are investigated.

Nonlinear buckling and postbuckling of orthogonal carbon nanotube-reinforced composite (Orthogonal CNTRC) cylindrical shells subjected to axial compression in thermal environments surrounded by elastic foundation are presented in this paper. Two layers of shell are reinforced by carbon nanotube (CNT) in two orthogonal directions (longitudinal and circumferential directions). Based on Donnell’s shell theory with von Karman’s nonlinearity and the Galerkin method, the governing equations are established to obtain the critical buckling loads and postbuckling load-deflection curves. The large effects of CNT volume fraction, temperature change, elastic foundation and geometrical parameters of cylindrical shells on the buckling load and postbuckling behavior of Orthogonal CNTRC cylindrical shells are obtained.
