This study provides an overview on the effect of porosity on free vibrations and more importantly aeroelastic stability margins of cylindrical shells. A general formulation for cylindrical shells is first developed including the effects of shear deformation and rotary inertia along with Sander’s rigid body rotation modification. Two porosity distributions of even and uneven are considered for functionally graded shells. The most general form of power-law model which is known as four-parameter power-law is utilized to provide a clear understanding for the qualification of functionally graded material. A Ritz-based solution algorithm being capable of representing all combinations of symmetric and asymmetric boundary conditions by a penalty method is also introduced. In addition to the capability of satisfying all boundary conditions, the presented solution method is very fast in terms of convergence and computational effort. Various parametric studies are provided and practical results are reported.

The present paper deals with a new analytical approach of nonlinear global buckling of spiral corrugated functionally graded carbon nanotube reinforced composite (FG-CNTRC) cylindrical shells subjected to radial loads. The equilibrium equation system is formulated by using the Donnell shell theory with the von Karman’s nonlinearity and an improved homogenization model for spiral corrugated structure. The obtained governing equations can be used to research the nonlinear postbuckling of mentioned above structures. By using the Galerkin method and a three term solution of deflection, an approximated analytical solution for the nonlinear stability problem of cylindrical shells is performed. The linear critical buckling loads and postbuckling strength of shells under radial loads are numerically investigated. Effectiveness of spiral corrugation in enhancing the global stability of spiral corrugated FG-CNTRC cylindrical shells is investigated.

Abstract Free vibrations of rotating cylindrical shells with distributed springs were studied. Based on the Flügge shell theory, the governing equations of rotating cylindrical shells with distributed springs were derived under typical boundary conditions. Multicomponent modal functions were used to satisfy the distributed springs around the circumference. The natural responses were analyzed using the Galerkin method. The effects of parameters, rotation speed, stiffness, and ratios of thickness/radius and length/radius, on natural response were also examined.
