The purpose of this work is to present baseline elasticity solutions for laminated composite shells subjected to localized moments. For simply supported cross-ply cylindrical shells, the problem reduces to one of coupled ordinary differential equations which are solved in terms of Taylor’s series. Results, in the form of tables and graphs, are presented for the cases of longitudinal and circumferential moments. These results would be very useful for judging the accuracy of approximate two-dimensional shell theories. They are used herein to study the errors of a shell theory based on the classical Love-Kirchhoff hypothesis.

Oval Cylindrical Shells

A linearized transverse shear deformable shell theory presented in a companion paper is confined to consideration with the buckling problem of axially compressed, cross-ply laminated noncircular cylindrical shells. Based on a solution of its governing differential equations, obtained for simply supported shells by means of Galerkin’s method, a study of the buckling problem of axially compressed circular and oval cylindrical shells, of a regular antisymmetric cross-ply laminated arrangement, is presented. Moreover, by comparing the numerical results obtained with corresponding results based on a classical Love-type shell theory, the combined influence of both the transverse shear deformation and the shell eccentricity on the buckling loads of such laminated composite shells is examined.

Three Dimensional Elasticity

Three-dimensional elasticity solutions have been presented for thick laminated crossply circular cylindrical panel. The panel is under localized patch moment in axial direction and is simply supported at all edges with finite length. Ordinary differential equations with variable coefficients are obtained by means of Fourier series expansion for displacement field and loading in the circumferential and axial directions. Resulting ordinary differential equations are solved using Taylor series. Numerical results are presented for (0/90°) and (0/90/0°) lay-up, and compared with the results for simple form of loading published in literatures.

Sinusoidal Shear Deformation Theory

Sinusoidal shear deformation theory is presented to analyze the natural frequencies of simply supported laminated composite plates. The governing differential equations based on sinusoidal theory are solved by a Navier-type analytical method. The present results are compared with the available published results which verify the accuracy of sinusoidal theory.

Formulation is derived for buckling of the circular cylindrical shell with multiple orthotropic layers and eccentric stiffeners acting under axial compression, lateral pressure, and/or combinations thereof, based on Sanders-Koiter theory. Buckling loads of circular cylindrical laminated composite shells are obtained using Sanders-Koiter, Love, and Donnell shell theories. These theories are compared for the variations in the stiffened cylindrical shells. To further demonstrate the shell theories for buckling load, the following particular case has been discussed: Cross-Ply with N odd (symmetric) laminated orthotropic layers. For certain cases the analytical buckling loads formula is derived for the stiffened isotropic cylindrical shell, when the ratio of the principal lamina stiffness is F = E2/E1 = 1. Due to the variations in geometrical and physical parameters in theory, meaningful general results are complicated to present. Accordingly, specific numerical examples are given to illustrate application of the proposed theory and derived analytical formulas for the buckling loads. The results derived herein are then compared to similar published work.

AbstractInvariant solutions of two-dimensional elastodynamics in linear homogeneous isotropic materials are considered via the group theoretical method. The second order partial differential equations of elastodynamics are reduced to ordinary differential equations under the infinitesimal operators. Three invariant solutions are constructed. Their graphical figures are presented and physical meanings are elucidated in some cases.
