In this paper, semi-analytical and analytical methods for the nonlinear static and dynamic buckling analyses of imperfect functionally graded porous (FGP) cylindrical shells subjected to axial compression are presented. The structure is embedded within a generalized nonlinear elastic foundation, treated as a two-parameter Winkler–Pasternak foundation augmented by a nonlinear cubic stiffness. The material property of the shell changes continuously through the thickness. Two types of FGP distributions, i.e. uniform porosity distribution (UPD) and nonuniform porosity distribution (NPD), are considered. By applying the Galerkin’s method to the von Kármán equations, the buckling of the shells was solved. The fourth-order Runge–Kutta method is utilized to obtain the responses of nonlinear dynamic buckling (NDB). The results obtained for some special cases are compared with those available elsewhere. The effects of various geometrical properties, material parameters and elastic foundation coefficients are investigated on the nonlinear static buckling (NSB) and dynamic buckling (DB) analyses of the shells. It was shown that various types of porosity, imperfection and the elastic foundation parameters have a strong effect on the buckling behaviors of the FGP cylindrical shells.

In this paper, an analytical method is used to study the nonlinear static and dynamic thermal buckling analysis of imperfect spiral stiffened functionally graded (SSFG) cylindrical shells. The SSFG cylindrical shell is surrounded by a linear and nonlinear elastic foundation. The proposed linear model is based on the two-parameter elastic foundation (Winkler and Pasternak). A three-parameter elastic foundation with hardening/softening cubic nonlinearity is used for nonlinear model. The material properties are temperature dependent and assumed to be continuously graded in the thickness direction. Also, for thermal buckling analysis, the uniform and linear temperature distribution in thickness direction is considered. The SSFG cylindrical shells are considered with various angles for spiral stiffeners. The strain–displacement relations are obtained based on the von Kármán nonlinear equations and the classical plate theory of shells. The smeared stiffener technique and the Galerkin method are applied to solve the nonlinear problem. In order to find the nonlinear dynamic thermal buckling responses, the fourth-order Runge–Kutta method is used. To validate the results, comparisons are made with those available in literature and good agreements are shown. The effects of various geometrical and material parameters are investigated on the nonlinear static and dynamic thermal buckling response of SSFG cylindrical shells.

Nonlinear dynamic characteristics of functionally graded material (FGM) cylindrical shells surrounded by nonlinear elastic foundation under axial static and lateral dynamic loads in thermal environment are investigated in the current paper. The main emphasis is on the simulation of the elastic foundation model and thermal loads. Nonlinear tri-parametric elastic foundation including linear and nonlinear parameters is used to model the reaction of the elastic foundation on the cylindrical shell. Different thermal loading scenarios are applied to the system to study the effects of thermal environment, including uniform, linear and nonlinear temperature distribution across the shell thickness. Governing equations are derived based on the Donnell’s thin shell theory. Material properties of the FGM are assumed to be variable through the shell thickness according to a power law function. Discretization of the obtained governing equations is performed using the Galerkin’s method. An averaging method and the Runge–Kutta method are applied to obtain the frequency–amplitude relation and time–deflection relation, respectively. Comprehensive numerical results are given for investigating the effects of thermo-mechanical loads, material and geometrical properties and nonlinear elastic foundation parameters on nonlinear dynamic characteristics of the functionally graded cylindrical shells (FGCSs). Present formulations are validated by comparing the results with the published data for some specific cases.
