Following Flu¨ gge's exact derivation for the buckling of cylindrical shells, the equations of motion for dynamic loading of a circular cylindrical shell under external hydrostatic pressure have been formulated. The normal mode theory is used to provide transient dynamic response for the equations of motion. The responses of displacements, strain, and stress are obtained for the area of impact, while those outside the area of impact are also calculated. The accuracy of normal mode theory and Timoshenko shell theory are examined in this paper.

In the design of structural systems such as nuclear reactor coolant loops consisting of piping, supports, bumpers, and tie rods, the basic structure is linear. For transient analysis of piping loops under conditions of earthquake and hypothetical accident of pipe rupture, the linear system becomes nonlinear because of forces due to bottoming in gaps, plastic action in the bumper stops or tie rods, etc. The dynamic analysis of such a structure normally employs the direct integration of the governing nonlinear equations of motion. A technique is presented in this paper where conventional normal mode theory is used even though there are nonlinearities. Nonlinearities such as bumper-gap elements, plasticity, etc., are defined as functions of motion and incorporated as generalized pseudoforces. This approach can, to a considerable degree, preserve the benefits of modal type analysis such as physical understanding in terms of frequencies and modes, and adequate and economical solutions using a reduced number of modes.

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.
