Abstract: The theoretical framework of the present manuscript covers the dynamic analysis of doubly-curved shell structures using the generalized displacement field of the Carrera Unified Formulation (CUF), including the Zig-Zag (ZZ) effect given by the Murakami’s function. The partial differential system of equations is solved by using the Generalized Differential Quadrature (GDQ) method. This numerical approach has been proven to be accurate, reliable and stable in several engineering applications. The current paper focuses on Functionally Graded (FG) doubly-curved shells and panels using various higher-order equivalent single layer theories, introduced and applied for the first time by the authors to completely doubly-curved shell structures, and different through-the-thickness volume fraction distributions, such as four-parameter power law, Weibull and exponential distributions. Moreover, the classic theory of mixtures is compared to the Mori–Tanaka scheme for the calculation of the mechanical properties of the materials. In particular, the numerical applications presented in this work are related to particular FG configurations in which it is possible to model a soft-core structure using a continuous variation of the mechanical properties of the materials at hand. The natural frequencies and mode shapes of several structures are presented and compared to numerical solutions taken from the literature.

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of geometrically non-linear free and forced vibrations of shells made of traditional and advanced materials is presented, including closed shells and curved panels made of isotropic, laminated composite, piezoelectric, functionally graded and hyperelastic materials.
Abstract: The present literature review focuses on geometrically non-linear free and forced vibrations of shells made of traditional and advanced materials. Flat and imperfect plates and membranes are excluded. Closed shells and curved panels made of isotropic, laminated composite, piezoelectric, functionally graded and hyperelastic materials are reviewed and great attention is given to non-linear vibrations of shells subjected to normal and in-plane excitations. Theoretical, numerical and experimental studies dealing with particular dynamical problems involving parametric vibrations, stability, dynamic buckling, non-stationary vibrations and chaotic vibrations are also addressed. Moreover, several original aspects of non-linear vibrations of shells and panels, including (i) fluid–structure interactions, (ii) geometric imperfections, (iii) effect of geometry and boundary conditions, (iv) thermal loads, (v) electrical loads and (vi) reduced-order models and their accuracy including perturbation techniques, proper orthogonal decomposition, non-linear normal modes and meshless methods are reviewed in depth.
