In this paper, dynamic instability of functionally graded carbon nanotubes (CNTs)-reinforced composite joined conical-cylindrical shell in supersonic flow is analyzed numerically. The higher-order shear deformation theory is applied to describe the stress–strain state of thin-walled structure. The assumed-mode method is used to derive the finite degrees-of-freedom dynamical system, which describes the structure motions. The structure motions are expanded by using the eigenmodes, which are obtained by the Rayleigh–Ritz method. The trial functions, which satisfy the continuity conditions at the cylindrical-cone junction, are used to obtain the eigenmodes. The properties of free vibrations of thin-walled structure are analyzed numerically. The dynamic instability of the joined conical-cylindrical shell in supersonic flow is analyzed using the characteristic exponents. As follows from the numerical study, the dynamic instability is arisen due to the Hopf bifurcation. The dependences of the supersonic flow critical pressure on the Mach number and the type of CNTs distribution are analyzed numerically.
