Theory Of Shells

This paper presents the superharmonic and subharmonic resonances of spiral stiffened functionally graded (SSFG) cylindrical shells under harmonic excitation. The stiffeners are considered to be externally or internally added to the shell. Also, it is assumed that the material properties of the stiffeners are continuously graded in the thickness direction. In order to model the stiffeners, the smeared stiffener technique is used. Within the context of the classical plate theory of shells, the von Kármán nonlinear equations are derived for the shell and stiffeners based on Hooke’s law and the relations of stress-strain. Using Galerkin’s method, the equation of motion is discretized. The superharmonic and subharmonic resonances are analyzed by the method of multiple scales. The influence of the material parameters and various geometrical properties on the superharmonic and subharmonic resonances of SSFG cylindrical shells is investigated. Considering these results, the hardening nonlinearity behavior and jump value of cylindrical shell is less and more than others, when the angle of stiffeners is [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], respectively.

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.

This paper is devoted to superharmonic and subharmonic behavior investigation of imperfect functionally graded (FG) cylindrical shells with external FG spiral stiffeners under large amplitude excitations. The structure is embedded within a generalized nonlinear viscoelastic foundation, which is composed of a two-parameter Winkler–Pasternak foundation augmented by a Kelvin–Voigt viscoelastic model with a nonlinear cubic stiffness, to account for the vibration hardening/softening phenomena and damping considerations. The von Kármán strain-displacement kinematic nonlinearity is employed in the constitutive laws of the shell and stiffeners. The external spiral stiffeners of the cylindrical shell are modeled according to the smeared stiffener technique. The coupled governing equations are solved by using Galerkin’s method in conjunction with the stress function concept. The multiple scales method is utilized to detect the subharmonic and superharmonic resonances and the frequency–amplitude relations of the 1/3 and 1/2 subharmonic and 3/1 and 2/1 superharmonic resonances of the system. Finally, the influences of the stiffeners helical angles, foundation type, coefficient of the nonlinear elastic foundation, material distribution, and excitation amplitude on the system resonances are investigated comprehensively.

In this paper, a new plate structure has been found with the change of profile according to the sine function which we temporarily call as the sinusoidal plate. The classical plate theory and Galerkin’s technique have been utilized in estimating the nonlinear vibration behavior of the new non-rectangular plates reinforced by functionally graded (FG) graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) resting on the Kerr foundation. The FG-GNP plates were assumed to have two horizontal variable edges according to the sine function. Four different configurations of the FG-GNP plates based on the number of cycles of sine function were analyzed. The material characteristics of the GNPs were evaluated in terms of two models called the Halpin–Tsai micromechanical model and the rule of mixtures. First, to verify this method, the natural frequencies of new non-rectangular plates made of metal were compared with those obtained by the Finite Element Method (FEM). Then, the numerical outcomes are validated by comparing with the previous papers for rectangular FGM/GNP plates — a special case of this structure. Furthermore, the impacts of the thermal environment, geometrical parameters, and the elastic foundation on the dynamical responses are scrutinized by the 2D/3D graphical results and coded in Wolfram-Mathematica. The results of this work proved that the introduced approach has the advantages of being fast, having high accuracy, and involving uncomplicated calculation.

In this article, the effect of Pasternak foundation on free axisymmetric vibration of functionally graded circular plates subjected to mechanical in-plane force and a nonlinear temperature distribution (NTD) along the thickness direction has been investigated on the basis of classical plate theory. The plate material is graded in thickness direction according to a power-law distribution and its mechanical properties are assumed to be temperature-dependent (TD). At first, the equation for thermo-elastic equilibrium and then equation of motion for such a plate model have been derived by Hamilton's principle. Employing generalized differential quadrature rule (GDQR), the numerical values of thermal displacements and frequencies for clamped and simply supported plates vibrating in the first three modes have been computed. Values of in-plane force parameter for which the plate ceases to vibrate have been reported as critical buckling loads. The effect of temperature difference, material graded index, in-plane force, and foundation parameters on the frequencies has been analyzed. The benchmark results for uniform and linear temperature distributions (LTDs) have been computed. A study for plates made with the material having temperature-independent (TI) mechanical properties has also been performed as a special case. Comparison of results with the published work has been presented.

Composite Cylindrical Shells

This paper deals with the nonlinear large deflection torsional buckling of functionally graded carbon nanotube (CNT) orthogonally reinforced composite cylindrical shells surrounded by Pasternak’s elastic foundations with the thermal effect. The shell is made by two layers where the polymeric matrix is reinforced by the CNTs in longitudinal and circumferential directions for outer and inner layers, respectively. The stability equation system is obtained by combining the Donnell’s shell theory, von Kármán nonlinearity terms, the circumferential condition in average sense and three-state solution form of deflection. The critical torsional buckling load, postbuckling load-deflection and the load-end shortening expressions are obtained by applying the Galerkin procedure. The effects of temperature change, foundation parameters, geometrical properties and CNT distribution law on the nonlinear behavior of cylindrical shell are numerically predicted. Especially, the effect of orthogonal reinforcement in comparison with longitudinal and circumferential reinforcement on the torsional buckling behavior of shells is observed.

Based on the mathematical similarity of the eigenvalue problem of the Reddy’s third-order plate theory (RPT) and the classical plate theory (CPT), relationships between the solutions of axisymmetric vibration or buckling of functionally graded material (FGM) circular plates based on RPT and those of isotropic homogeneous circular plates based on CPT are presented, from which one can easily obtain the RPT solutions of axisymmetric vibration or buckling of FGM circular plates expressed in terms of the well-known CPT solutions of isotropic circular plates without much tedious mathematics. Effects of rotary inertia are not considered in the present analysis. The relationships obtained from the present analysis may be used to check the validity, convergence and accuracy of numerical results of FGM plates based on RPT, and also show clearly the intrinsic features of the effect of transverse shear deformation on the classical solutions.

This paper presents an analytical approach to investigate the nonlinear stability of multilayer-functionally graded plates stiffened by orthogonal and/or oblique functionally graded stiffeners subjected to axial compression and/or thermal load. The equilibrium equation system is established by using the first-order shear deformation plate theory taking into account the plate–foundation interaction, geometrical nonlinearity in von Kármán sense and initial geometrical imperfection. An improved Lekhnitskii’s smeared stiffener technique is applied for oblique stiffeners with thermal terms and shear deformation of stiffeners. The governing equations are solved by Galerkin procedure to obtain the explicit expressions of buckling loads and postbuckling load–deflection curves. Results show the effects of material and geometrical properties, boundary conditions, elastic foundation parameters and initial imperfection on the buckling and postbuckling load-carrying capacity of plates.

This paper presents an analytical investigation on postbuckling behavior of thin plates reinforced by carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and subjected to nonuniform thermal loads. Unlike many previous works considered ideal case of thermal load is that uniform temperature rise, the present study considers more practical situations of thermal load are that sinusoidal and linear in-plane temperature distributions. CNTs are reinforced into matrix through functionally graded distributions and effective properties of nanocomposite are estimated according to extended rule of mixture. Basic equations are based on classical plate theory taking into account Von Karman nonlinearity, initial geometrical imperfection, interactive pressure from elastic foundations and elasticity of tangential constraints of simply supported boundary edges. Basic equations are solved by using analytical solutions and Galerkin method. From the obtained closed-form relations, thermal buckling and postbuckling behavior of nanocomposite plates are analyzed through numerical examples.

In this paper optimal design of free vibrations for functionally graded plates is studied using the analytical methods. The analytical methods can be employed for the solution of six of 21 arbitrary boundary conditions (the combinations of clamped, simply supported and free). The influence of various models of porosity and forms of different reinforcements with nanoplatelets and carbon nanotubes are investigated, including variations of stiffness/density along the thickness of a plate. The analysis is carried out for the classical plate theory. Parametric studies illustrate the possibility of increasing natural frequencies and the necessity of implementing the optimization techniques to find the best solutions from the engineering point of view.
