Effect of boundary condition and variable shell thickness on the vibration behavior of grid-stiffened composite conical shells

TL;DR: In this paper , the effect of boundary condition and variable shell thickness on the vibration behavior of grid-stiffened composite conical shells has been investigated, where the stiffener and shell structures have been reduced into an equivalent shell using smeared method, and the governing equations have been solved in order to evaluate the natural frequencies of the rigid conical shell by the use of first shear deformation theory (FSDT) along with the power series method.
