Based on the classical thin shell theory with the geometrical nonlinearity in von Karman-Donnell sense, the smeared stiffener technique and Galerkin method, this paper deals with the nonlinear dynamic problem of eccentrically stiffened functionally graded circular cylindrical shells subjected to time dependent axial compression and external pressure by analytical approach. The present novelty is that an approximate three-term solution of deflection taking into account the nonlinear buckling shape is chosen, the nonlinear dynamic second-order differential three equations system is established and the frequency-amplitude relation of nonlinear vibration is obtained in explicit form.

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.

Axially compressed composite cylindrical shells can attain multiple bifurcation points in their post-buckling procedure because of the natural transverse deformation restraint provided by their geometry. In this paper, the post-buckling analysis of functionally graded (FG) multilayer graphene platelets reinforced composite (GPLRC) cylindrical shells under axial compression is carried out to investigate the stability of such shells. Rather than the critical buckling limit, the focus of the present study is to obtain convergence post-buckling response curves of axially compressed FG multilayer GPLRC cylindrical shells. By introducing a unified shell theory, the nonlinear large deflection governing equations for post-buckling of FG multilayer GPLRC cylindrical shells with wide range of thickness are established, which can be easily changed into three widely used shell theories. Load-shortening curves for both symmetric and asymmetric post-buckling modes are obtained by Galerkin's method. Numerical results illustrate that the present solutions agree well with the existing theoretical and experimental data. The effects of geometries and material properties on the post-buckling behaviours of FG multilayer GPLRC cylindrical shells are investigated. The differences in the three shell theories and their scopes are discussed also.

Based on the classical thin shell theory with the geometrical nonlinearity in von Karman-Donnell sense, the smeared stiffener technique, Galerkin method and an approximate three-term solution of deflection taking into account the nonlinear buckling shape is chosen, the governing nonlinear dynamic equations of eccentrically stiffened functionally graded circular cylindrical shells subjected to time dependent axial compression and external pressure is established in part 1. In this study, the nonlinear dynamic responses are obtained by fourth order Runge-Kutta method and the nonlinear dynamic buckling behavior of stiffened functionally graded shells under linear-time loading is determined by according to Budiansky-Roth criterion. Numerical results are investigated to reveal effects of stiffener, input factors on the vibration and nonlinear dynamic buckling loads of stiffened functionally graded circular cylindrical shells.

Thermal post-buckling analysis of functionally graded cylindrical shells enhanced by shape memory alloys under uniform and non-uniform heating is presented in this article. Nonlinear equilibrium equations are derived based on the classical lamination theory and von-Karman nonlinear kinematic relations and post-buckling field is investigated using Galerkin method. For temperature dependency of material properties, a numerical solution is applied to solve the nonlinear equilibrium equation using finite difference method to solve the nonlinear heat conduction equation and layered model to evaluate the thermal stress of hybrid cylindrical shells. A closed-form solution is also presented for temperature independency of material properties. Brinson model is adopted to describe the thermo-mechanical behavior of shape memory alloys. Numerical results are presented for evaluating the effects of shape memory alloy layer and functionally graded material cylindrical shells properties on suppressing of the post-buckling path of hybrid cylindrical shells.
