In this paper, natural frequency of a multilayer truncated conical composite shell conveying quiescent fluid on elastic foundation with different boundary conditions is investigated and analyzed. The governing equations are presented based on the first-order shear deformation theory. Bernoulli’s equation and velocity potential have been used in the shell-fluid interface to obtain the fluid pressure. The fluid used in this study is considered non-compressible and non-viscous. The beam functions and the Galerkin weight functions method are used to describe and solve the coupled system of differential equations. Three types of boundary conditions are considered to investigate the natural frequency of the conical shells. The results show that the presence of the fluid in the conical shell reduces the fundamental natural frequency values. Also, by changing the semi-vertex conical angle from [Formula: see text] to [Formula: see text] for the simply support boundary conditions, the fundamental natural frequency value for the composite conical shell without and with fluid increases, and the presence of the elastic foundation increases the frequencies of the empty and full-fluid composite conical shells.
