TLDR
In this paper, the natural vibrations of railway wheels made of composite materials have been theoretically estimated by the finite element method and compared with those in wheels made by steel, and a conical shell element with displacements in the axial, radial and circumferential directions has been used in the analysis.About:

Vibration analysis of thick composite clamped conical shells of varying thickness
K.R. Sivadas,N. Ganesan +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the suitability of different theories used for vibration studies has been investigated, viz. Love's first approximation shell theory, an improved theory with shear deformation and rotatory inertia, and a shell theory with thickness normal strain and shear deformations.
