This paper is concerned with the natural vibrations of a rubber-like, thick-walled tube which is prestressed by an initial finite twist about the axis of the tube. The analysis is based on a rigorous theory of finite elasticity and the extended theory of small displacements superposed on large elastic deformations. Numerical results are obtained for tubes made of a neo-Hookean material. The fundamental frequency of the vibrations is found to depend on the prestressed state of the tube. In particular, when the tube becomes unstable under the initial twist, then the corresponding fundamental frequency ceases to be real-valued. When this happens, the problem becomes identical with that of torsional instability of similar tubes which was investigated earlier both analytically and experimentally.

Abstract The aim of this paper is to study the sound radiation by a cylindrical shell internally coupled with mechanical structures of high modal density. The model is based on a mobility technique. The numerical results show a smoothing of the cylinder’s velocity and radiation spectra associated with an increase of the apparent damping. The use of the S.E.A. method allows us to calculate an additional structural damping of the shell, equivalent to the effect of the internal structures.

This paper investigates the nonlinear breathing vibrations and chaos of a circular truss antenna under changing thermal environment with 1:2 internal resonance for the first time. A continuum circular cylindrical shell clamped by one beam along its axial direction on one side is proposed to replace the circular truss antenna composed of the repetitive beam-like lattice by the principle of equivalent effect. The effective stiffness coefficients of the equivalent circular cylindrical shell are obtained. Based on the first-order shear deformation shell theory and the Hamilton’s principle, the nonlinear governing equations of motion are derived for the equivalent circular cylindrical shell. The Galerkin approach is utilized to discretize the nonlinear partial governing differential equation of motion to the ordinary differential equation for the equivalent circular cylindrical shell. The case of the 1:2 internal resonance, primary parametric resonance and 1/2 subharmonic resonance is taken into account. The method of multiple scales is used to obtain the four-dimensional averaged equation. The frequency-response curves and force-response curves are obtained when considering the strongly coupled of two modes. The numerical results indicate that there are the hardening type and softening type nonlinearities for the circular truss antenna. Numerical simulation is used to investigate the influences of the thermal excitation on the nonlinear breathing vibrations of the circular truss antenna. It is demonstrated from the numerical results that there exist the bifurcation and chaotic motions of the circular truss antenna.

The paper deals with stability analysis of shell on the basis FEM via Castem 2000. The numerical results of stability problems of cylinders subjected to different loads as compress load, pressure, concentrated and combined loads are compared with analytical result and give a good agreement. The influence of changing radius of the cylindrical shell on the unstable forms and the influence of angles of fibers on unstable behaviour of laminated composite shell are considered. Numerical results and corresponding programs by languages Gibian given in the paper to realize software Castem 2000 can be applied in the design and in the stability analysis of the shell with more complex conditions
