In this paper, a unified method is developed to analyze free vibrations of the three-layer functionally graded cylindrical shell with non-uniform thickness. The middle layer is composed of two-dimensional functionally gradient materials (2D-FGMs), whose thickness is set as a function of smooth continuity. Four sets of artificial springs are assigned at the ends of the shells to satisfy the arbitrary boundary conditions. The Sanders’ shell theory is used to obtain the strain and curvature-displacement relations. Furthermore, the Chebyshev polynomials are selected as the admissible function to improve computational efficiency, and the equation of motion is derived by the Rayleigh–Ritz method. The effects of spring stiffness, volume fraction indexes, configuration on of shell, and the change in thickness of the middle layer on the modal characteristics of the new structural shell are also analyzed.

Approximate Formulas

Simple approximate formulas for the natural frequencies of circular cylindrical shells are presented for modes in which transverse deflection dominates. Based on the Donnell-Mushtari thin shell theory the equations of motion of the circular cylindrical shell are introduced, using Vlasov assumptions and Fourier series for the circumferential direction, an exact solution in the axial direction is obtained. To improve the results assumptions of Vlasov’s semimomentless theory are enhanced, i.e. we have used only the hypothesis of middle surface inextensibility to obtain a solution in axial direction. Nonlinear characteristic equations and natural mode shapes, are derived for all type of boundary conditions. Good agreement with experimental data and FEM is shown and advantage over the existing formulas for a variety of boundary conditions is presented.

Elastic Responses

Strain growth is a phenomenon observed in the elastic response of containment vessels subjected to internal blast loading. The local dynamic response of a containment vessel may become larger in a later stage than its response in the earlier stage. In order to understand the possible mechanisms of the strain growth phenomenon in a cylindrical vessel, dynamic elastic responses of a finite-length cylindrical shell with different boundary conditions subjected to internal pressure pulse are studied by finite-element simulation using LS-DYNA. It is found that the strain growth in a finite-length cylindrical shell with sliding–sliding boundary conditions is caused by nonlinear modal coupling. Strain growth in a finite-length cylindrical shell with free–free or simply supported boundary conditions is primarily caused by the linear modal superposition, possibly enhanced by the nonlinear modal coupling. The understanding of these strain growth mechanisms can guide the design of cylindrical containment vessels.

Explosion containment vessels (ECVs) are used to fully contain the effects of explosion events. A discrete multi-layered cylindrical shell (DMC) consisting of a thin inner cylindrical shell and helically cross-winding flat steel ribbons has been proposed, which has obvious advantages of fabrication convenience and low costs. The applications of ECVs are closely associated with blast and thermal loads, and thus, it is important to understand the response of a DMC under transient thermal load in order to develop a design code and operation procedures for the use of DMC as ECV. In this paper, a mathematical model for the elastic response of a DMC subjected to thermal loading due to rapid heating is proposed. Based on the axisymmetric plane strain assumption, the displacement solution of the dynamic equilibrium equations of both inner shell and outer ribbon layer are decomposed into two parts, i.e. a thermo-elastic part satisfying inhomogeneous stress boundary conditions and a dynamic part for homogeneous stress boundary conditions. The thermo-elastic part is solved by a linear method and the dynamic part is determined by means of finite Hankel transform and Laplace transform. The thermo-elastic solution of a DMC is compared with the solution of a monobloc cylindrical shell, and numerical results are presented and discussed in terms of winding angle and material parameters.

An analytical approach for studying the elastic stability of thin rectangular plates under arbitrary boundary conditions is presented. Because the solution is given in closed-form, the approach can be regarded as "exact" under the Kirchhoff–Love assumption. The proposed procedure allows us to obtain the buckling load and modal displacements that do not depend on the number of elements adopted in the numerical discretization using, say, the finite element method. Due to the fact that the longitudinal variation of the displacements is taken into account, the two-dimensional model established for the plate is considered "complete." Such an approach overcomes the shortcomings of conventional modeling presented in the literature. In order to demonstrate the generality of the proposed approach, several examples are prepared and the results obtained are compared with finite element and analytical solutions existing elsewhere.

An analytical investigation is made of the stresses due to external forces and moments acting on an elastic nonradial circular cylindrical nozzle attached to a spherical shell. The nozzle (a cylindrical shell) is nonradial in the sense that its axis is inclined and does not pass through the center of the sphere. Results are obtained by combining solutions from shell theory by a Galerkin-type method so as to satisfy boundary conditions at the intersection of the two shells. It is found that, as the nozzle inclination increases, the stresses change gradually from those previously given by Bijlaard for the radial nozzle.
