The Galerkin Method

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.

Orthogonal Stiffeners

The geometrically nonlinear response of sandwich functionally graded cylindrical shells reinforced by orthogonal and/or spiral stiffeners and subjected to axial compressive loads is investigated in this paper. Two types of sandwich functionally graded material models are considered. The formulations are based on the Donnell shell theory considering geometrical nonlinearity and Pasternak’s elastic foundation. The improved Lekhnitskii’s smeared stiffener technique is used to account for the stiffener effects with both mechanical and thermal stresses. The results obtained indicate that the spiral stiffeners have significantly beneficial influences in comparison with orthogonal stiffeners on the nonlinear buckling behavior of shells. The relatively large effects of temperature change, geometrical and material parameters are also demonstrated in the numerical investigations.

Composite Cylindrical Shells

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.
