Methods of analysis are presented for very thick-walled cylindrical, isotropic shells subjected to axially symmetric lateral and in-plane loads. These methods are developed for shells with ratios of wall thickness to mean radius as large as 0.5, as well as being applicable for thin classical shells which involve Love’s First Approximation. The present methods are elasticity solutions and employ no shell theory assumptions. Explicit solutions are presented for the shell subject to in-plane loads and laterally distributed loads which are constant or varying linearly axially for various boundary conditions at the ends.

In this paper, a formulation for the dynamic stability analysis of circular cylindrical shells under axial compression with various boundary conditions is presented. The present study uses Love’s first approximation theory for thin shells and the characteristic beam functions as approximate axial modal functions. Applying the Ritz procedure to the Lagrangian energy expression yields a system of Mathieu–Hill equations the stability of which is analyzed using Bolotin’s method. The present study examines the effects of different boundary conditions on the parametric response of homogeneous isotropic cylindrical shells for various transverse modes and length parameters.

The Galerkin Method

Abstract Free vibrations of rotating cylindrical shells with distributed springs were studied. Based on the Flügge shell theory, the governing equations of rotating cylindrical shells with distributed springs were derived under typical boundary conditions. Multicomponent modal functions were used to satisfy the distributed springs around the circumference. The natural responses were analyzed using the Galerkin method. The effects of parameters, rotation speed, stiffness, and ratios of thickness/radius and length/radius, on natural response were also examined.

Conveying Fluid

The natural frequencies of free vibrations for thick cylindrical shells with clamped-clamped ends conveying fluid are investigated. Equations of motion and boundary conditions are derived by Hamilton’s principle based on the new high order shell theory. The hydrodynamic force is derived from the linearized potential flow theory. Besides, fluid pressure acting on the shell wall is gotten by the assumption of non-penetration condition. The out-of-plane and in-plane vibrations are coupled together due to the existence of fluid-solid-interaction (FSI). Under the assumption of harmonic motion, the dispersion relationships are presented. Using the method of frequency sweeping, the natural frequencies of symmetric modes and asymmetric modes corresponding to each flow velocity are found by satisfying the dispersion relationship equations and boundary conditions. Several numerical examples with different flow velocities and thickness are presented compared with previous thin shell theory and FEM results and show reasonable agreement. The effects of thickness are discussed.

A formal solution is presented for the dynamic boundary-value problem of the axially symmetric motion of finite, Timoshenko-type, isotropic, linearly elastic, cylindrical shells with time-dependent boundary conditions of any admissible combination, acted upon by time-dependent surface tractions with specified arbitrary initial conditions, obtained by using Herrmann-Mirsky shell theory and modal acceleration method. The method is applied to a simply supported shell subject to longitudinal tensile step forces at both ends. The transient response is studied in detail and the results predicted by the improved and the classical theories are compared.
