Cord-Reinforced Cylindrical Shells
… from the loads on a cord-reinforced cylindrical shell. The load-deformation relations are developed by considering the mechanics of the matrix, the cords, and the shell. The matrix is modeled using the generalized Hooke's law for an isotropic linear-elastic material. The theory that …

Torsion of Elliptical Composite Cylindrical Shells
The response of elliptical composite cylindrical shells under torsion is studied. The torsional condition is developed by rotating one end of the cylinder relative to the other. Prebuckling, buckling, and postbuckling responses are examined, and material failure is considered. Four elliptical cross …

Nonlinear forced response of circular cylindrical shells
… the nonlinear forced response of circular cylindrical shells in the presence of internal (autoparametric) resonances. If ω<sub>f</sub> and a<sub>f</sub> denote the frequency and amplitude of a flexural mode and ω<sub>b</sub> and a<sub>b</sub> denote the frequency and amplitude of the …

Asymptotic analysis of vibrations of thin cylindrical shells
… value problems involving vibrations of thin cylindrical shells by means of symbolic computation is presented. The algorithm is based on the method of asymptotic integration of the vibration equations of thin shells, developed by Goldenveizer, Lidsky and Tovstik. A linear shell theory of the …

Layerwise theory for discretely stiffened laminated cylindrical shells
… model discretely stiffened laminated composite cylindrical shells for stress, vibration, pre-buckling and post-buckling analysis. The layerwise theory reduces a three-dimensional problem to a two-dimensional problem by expanding the three-dimensional displacement field as a function of a …

Optimal design of geodesically stiffened composite cylindrical shells
… conduct a design study of geodesically stiffened shells. For comparison purposes, optimal designs of unstiffened shells and shells stiffened by rings and stringers are also obtained. Trends in the design of geodesically stiffened shells are identified. An approach to include local stress …

Dynamics of circular cylindrical shells in contact with fluid.
… between finite thin elastic circular cylindrical shells and fluids. The physical coupling phenomenon is explored considering liquid storage tanks and short tubes with an annular flow. Free radial vibrations of tanks are investigated by a classical theoretical analysis, finite element …

Circumferential propagation of acoustic pulses in partially-filled cylindrical shells
… aluminum and stainless steel thin-walled cylindrical shells in the frequency x thickness (fd) region 0.64 MHz mm < fd < 0.96 MHz mm. In pulse-echo experiments, a multiplicity of periodic echoes were received when a single input pulse was applied to the outer surface of the shell. The …

An axisymmetric cubic finite element for laminated anisotropic cylindrical shells
… or moderately thick laminated composite circular cylindrical shells is developed. This model accounts for transverse shear deformation and rotary inertia effects. Unlike conventional shell elements, this new element allows separate rotational degrees of freedom for each layer (hence giving more …

Improvement of the axial buckling capability of elliptical cylindrical shells
… of an axially-loaded orthotropic circular cylindrical shell is formulated. The analysis assumes prebuckling rotations are negligible and uses a unique re-defining of the orthotropic material properties in terms of a so-called geometric mean isotropic (GMI) material. Closed-form expressions …
