Abstract: Accurate calculation of natural frequencies is significant for accurate prediction and suppression of motor vibration and noise. In order to reduce the errors caused by simplified structure ...

In this paper, an analytical approach for global buckling of ring-stiffened sandwich cylindrical shells is presented with layerwise theory (LWT). Appropriate displacement functions are assumed ...

ABSTRACT: The static buckling load of an imperfect circular cylindrical shell is here determined asymptotically with the assumption that the normal displacement can be expanded in a double Fourier ...

Under combined electro-thermo-mechanical loadings, the nonlinear bending of piezoelectric cylindrical shell reinforced with boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) is investigated in this paper. By employing ...
