Nonlinear free vibration of shear deformable orthotropic functionally graded cylindrical shells

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the non-linear free vibration of functionally graded (FG) orthotropic cylindrical shells taking into account the shear stresses, and derived the expressions for the nonlinear frequency parameters and nonlinear to linear frequency ratios depending on the amplitude within the SDT.

Exact solutions for vibration of stepped circular cylindrical shells

TL;DR: In this article, the exact solutions for the vibration of circular cylindrical shells with step-wise thickness variations in the axial direction were presented, where the shell is sub-divided into multiple segments at the locations of thickness variations.

A comparison of some shell theories used for the dynamic analysis of cross-ply laminated circular cylindrical panels

On vibrations of heterogeneous orthotropic cylindrical shells.

TL;DR: In this paper, a refined version of the Love-type theory of motion is established for orthotropic composite cylindrical shells, expressed by R sub 1 inertia terms, and an extended version is formulated to account for dynamic stability problems involving time-dependent and non-conservative forces.

Finite elements for the vibration of cones and cylinders

TL;DR: In this paper, a semi-analytical approach for the vibration of conical and cylindrical shells has been proposed based on mass matrices, and good agreement has been found between theory and experiment for thin-walled circular cylinders and cones, a conecylinder combination, and a cooling tower model.
