Effect of agglomeration on the natural frequencies of functionally graded carbon nanotube-reinforced laminated composite doubly-curved shells

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of Carbon Nanotube (CNT) agglomeration on free vibrations of laminated composite doubly-curved shells and panels reinforced by CNTs is investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

A unified approach for the vibration analysis of moderately thick composite laminated cylindrical shells with arbitrary boundary conditions

TL;DR: In this paper, a unified analytical method based on the first-order shear deformation theory is developed for the vibration analysis of moderately thick composite laminated cylindrical shells subjected to general boundary conditions and arbitrary intermediate ring supports, and various lamination schemes.
Journal ArticleDOI

An exact solution for the free vibration analysis of laminated composite cylindrical shells with general elastic boundary conditions

TL;DR: In this paper, a unified and exact solution method for the free vibration analysis of composite laminated cylindrical shells with general elastically restrained boundaries and arbitrary lamination schemes is developed, where each of the shell displacements, regardless of boundary conditions, is constructed as a standard Fourier cosine series supplemented with auxiliary functions introduced to eliminate all the relevant discontinuities with the displacement and its derivatives at the edges.

Vibration of functionally graded cylindrical shells

TL;DR: In this article, a study on the vibration of cylindrical shells made of a functionally gradient material (FGM) composed of stainless steel and nickel is presented, the objective is to study the natural frequencies, the influence of constituent volume fractions and the effects of configurations of the constituent materials on the frequencies.

Wave propagation in continuous periodic structures: research contributions from southampton, 1964–1995

TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus mainly on methods developed at the University of Southampton since 1964 to analyze and predict the free and forced wave motion in continuous periodic engineering structures and present sample curves of the propagation and attenuation constants pertaining to these structures.

Distributed piezoelectric sensor/actuator design for dynamic measurement/control of distributed parameter systems: A piezoelectric finite element approach

TL;DR: In this paper, a new structure (shell or plate) containing an integrated distributed piezoelectric sensor and actuator is proposed, where the distributed sensing layer monitors the structural oscillation due to the direct PDE and the distributed actuator layer suppresses the oscillation via the converse PDE.

Three-dimensional solution of the free vibration problem of homogeneous isotropic cylindrical shells and panels

TL;DR: In this paper, the free vibration problem of a homogeneous isotropic thick cylindrical shell or panel subjected to a certain type of simply supported edge boundary conditions is considered, and the governing equations of three-dimensional linear elasticity are employed and solved by using a new iterative approach which, in practice, leads to the prediction of the exact frequencies of vibration.

Vibration of Shallow Shells: A Review With Bibliography

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the free vibration analysis of thin, moderately thick, and thick shallow shells is presented, focusing on research advances in vibration studies since the 1970s using the classical Kirchhoff-love, first-order and higher-order theories.
