The research materials are related to the problem of ensuring vibration resistance of pipelines exposed to dynamic loads, for which increased vibration is the main cause of damage. The solution to this problem involves studying the parameters of free vibrations of the structure. The paper solves the problem of determining the natural frequencies and forms of vibrations of a section of a circular cylindrical shell filled with an medium considered in the acoustic approximation. The results of studies of the parameters of free vibrations were obtained both by the analytical method of shell theory based on the Kirchhoff-Love hypotheses, and using the finite element complex of engineering analysis ANSYS. It is shown that the influence of the medium density on the parameters of free vibrations of the shell depends on the ratio of the shell thickness to its radius it turns out to be significant only for the shape of vibrations associated with bending deformation, and insignificant for forms associated with deformations of the middle layer. A comparative analysis of the results of calculations obtained for models of compressible and incompressible medium shows that when solving the problem of determining the parameters of free vibrations of the shell, the compressibility of the medium can be neglected. At the same time, to solve practical problems that require taking into account the full spectrum of natural frequencies of the shell–medium system, a compressible medium model should be used, in which the results on the effect of shell stiffness on the frequency spectrum of the medium volume are obtained. When solving practical problems of pipeline systems vibration, the use of the finite element method in a coupled formulation is an effective tool that allows us to consider all physical processes taking into account their mutual influence on each other.

The problem of “Free Vibrations Centrally and Non Centrally Stiffened Composite Shallow Cylindrical Shell Panels” are briefly considered and their vibration characteristics are compared, in detail, in terms of their natural frequencies and the corresponding mode shapes. First, the complete set of composite shallow cylindrical shell equations are reduced to a system of first order ordinary differential equations in “state-vector” form. Then, by making use of the “Modified Transfer Matrix Method”, the effects of the position and the width of the stiffening shell strip in the natural frequencies and the mode shapes of the panel system are plotted and compared. Some significant results of parametric studies and also the possibility of some kind of hit-and-run type of optimization are presented.

Since their discovery, immense attention has been given to carbon nanotubes (CNTs), due to their exceptional thermal, electronic and mechanical properties and, therefore, the wide range of applications in which they are, or can be potentially, employed. Hence, it is important that all the properties of carbon nanotubes are studied extensively. This thesis studies the vibrational frequencies of double-walled and triple-walled CNTs, with and without an elastic medium surrounding them, by using Finite Element Method (FEM) and Dynamic Stiffness Matrix (DSM) formulations, considering them as Euler-Bernoulli beams coupled with van der Waals interaction forces. For FEM modelling, the linear eigenvalue problem is obtained using Galerkin weighted residual approach. The natural frequencies and mode shapes are derived from eigenvalues and eigenvectors, respectively. For DSM formulation of double-walled CNTs, a nonlinear eigenvalue problem is obtained by enforcing displacement and load end conditions to the exact solution of single equation achieved by combining the coupled governing equations. The natural frequencies are obtained using Wittrick-Williams algorithm. FEM formulation is also applied to both double and triple-walled CNTs modelled as nonlocal Euler-Bernoulli beam. The natural frequencies obtained for all the cases, are in agreement with the values provided in literature.

Abstract This study is concerned with the “Free Vibrations of Composite Shallow Circular Cylindrical Shells or Shell Panels with a Central Stiffening Shell Strip”. The upper and lower shell elements of the stiffened composite system are considered as dissimilar, orthotropic shallow shells. The upper relatively narrow stiffening shell strip is centrally located and adhesively bonded to the lower main shell element In the theoretical formulation, a “First Order Shear Deformation Shell Theory (FSDST)” is employed. The complete set of the shallow shell dynamic equations (including the stress resultant-displacement and the constitutive equations) and the equations of the thin flexible, adhesive layer are first reduced to a set of first order system of ordinary differential equations. This final set forms the governing equations of the problem. Then, they are integrated by means of the “Modified Transfer Matrix Method”. In the adhesive layer, the “hard” and the “soft” adhesive effects are considered. It was found that the material characteristics of the adhesive layer influence the mode shapes and the corresponding natural frequencies of the composite shallow shell panel system. Additionally, some parametric studies on the natural frequencies are presented.

This study is concerned with the “Free Asymmetric Vibrations of Composite Full Circular Cylindrical Shells Stiffened by a Bonded Central Shell Segment.” The base shell is made of an orthotropic “full” circular cylindrical shell reinforced and/or stiffened by an adhesively bonded dissimilar, orthotropic “full” circular cylindrical shell segment. The stiffening shell segment is located at the mid-center of the composite system. The theoretical analysis is based on the “Timoshenko-Mindlin-(and Reissner) Shell Theory” which is a “First Order Shear Deformation Shell Theory (FSDST).” Thus, in both “base (or lower) shell” and in the “upper shell” segment, the transverse shear deformations and the extensional, translational and the rotary moments of inertia are taken into account in the formulation. In the very thin and linearly elastic adhesive layer, the transverse normal and shear stresses are accounted for. The sets of the dynamic equations, stress-resultant-displacement equations for both shells and the in-between adhesive layer are combined and manipulated and are finally reduced into a ”Governing System of the First Order Ordinary Differential Equations” in the “state-vector” form. This system is integrated by the “Modified Transfer Matrix Method (with Chebyshev Polynomials).” Some asymmetric mode shapes and the corresponding natural frequencies showing the effect of the “hard” and the “soft” adhesive cases are presented. Also, the parametric study of the “overlap length” (or the bonded joint length) on the natural frequencies in several modes is considered and plotted.

Free oscillations and dynamic instability due to supersonic airflow pressure are investigated in a functional-gradient compound composite conical-cylindrical shell made of a carbon nanotubes-reinforced material. Nanocomposite materials with a linear distribution of the volumetric fraction of nanotubes over the thickness are considered. Extended mixture rule is used to estimate nanocomposite’s mechanical characteristics. A high-order shear deformation theory is used to represent the shell deformation. The assumed-mode technique, along with a Rayleigh-Ritz method, is applied to obtain the equations of the structure motion. To analyze the compound structure dynamics, a new system of piecewise basic functions is suggested. The pressure of a supersonic flow on the shell is obtained by using the piston theory. An example of the dynamic analysis of a nanocomposite conical-cylindrical shell in the supersonic gas flow is considered. The results of its modal analysis using the Rayleigh-Ritz technique are close to the natural frequencies of the shell obtained by finite element analysis. In this case, finite element analysis can only be used for shells made of material with a uniform distribution of nanotubes over the thickness. The dependence of the natural frequencies of a compound shell on the ratio of the lengths of the conical and cylindrical parts is studied. The dependence of the critical pressure of a supersonic flow on the Mach numbers and the type of carbon nanotubes reinforcement is investigated. Shells with a concentration of nanotubes predominantly near the outer and inner surfaces are characterized by higher values of natural frequencies and critical pressure than the shells with a uniform distribution of nanotubes or with a predominant concentration of nanotubes inside the shell.

The dynamic response of a periodically simply supported, infinitely long, circular cylindrical shell to a pressure suddenly applied through the surrounding acoustic medium is investigated. The incident particle velocity is zero, and the pressure is assumed to have a harmonic spatial variation parallel to the shell axis. The exact solution is obtained by use of a Fourier integral transform, and the resulting inversion integral is evaluated by numerical and asymptotic integration. Two solutions to the same problem are obtained by using a plane and cylindrical wave approximation for the radiated field. The range of their applicability is investigated. For a steel shell in water ccs2=0.08815 it is found that, when the supports are placed three shell diameters apart, the use of the cylindrical wave approximation results in a 5-percent underestimation of the maximum deflection, while when the supports are placed one sixth of a shell diameter apart, the approximations are invalid.
