TL;DR: In this paper, a semi-analytical axisymmetric shell finite element model with embedded and/or surface bonded piezoelectric ring actuators and sensors for active damping vibration control of the structure is presented.

TL;DR: In this paper, a numerical method for the structural analysis of laminated conical shell panels using a quadrilateral isoparametric finite element based on the higher order shear deformation theory is presented.

TL;DR: In this article, a numerical method for the structural analysis of axisymmetric shells based on the high-order theory is presented, where a higher order displacement field is used with the longitudinal and circumferential components of the displacement given by power series of the transversal coordinate and the condition of zero stress in the top and bottom surfaces of the shell is imposed.

TL;DR: In this article, a semianalytical axisymmetric shell finite element model is presented, which has the possibility of having embedded and/or surface-bonded piezoelectric ring actuators and sensors.

TL;DR: In this article, a shell conical panel finite element model with embedded piezoelectric actuators and/or sensors patches is presented, which combines an equivalent single layer higher order shear deformation approach for the mechanical behavior with a layerwise representation in the thickness direction.
