Abstract:Vibrational characteristics of functionally graded cylindrical shells filled with fluid and placed on Winkler and Pasternak elastic foundations are investigated. Love's thin-shell theory is utilized for strain-displacement and curvature-displacement relationships. Shell dynamical equations are solved by using wave propagation approach. Natural frequencies for both empty and fluid-filled functionally graded cylindrical shells based on elastic foundations are determined for simply-supported boundary condition an… Show more
“…Figure 1 presents a cylindrical shell with radius R , length L , and thickness h . Based on Love’s thin-shell theory (Shah et al., 2011), the displacement components of the cylindrical shell are given by where U(x,θ,t),V(x,θ,t),W(x,θ,t) are displacement components of the middle plane. …”
Different from piezoelectric effect, the flexoelectric effect is size dependent and becomes more significant at nanoscale. A nonlinear dynamic model of nanoscale flexoelectric shells is developed based on modified couples stress theory. The governing equations for nonlinear vibration of a flexoelectric cylindrical nanoshell are obtained. The natural frequency and generated voltage of the flexoelectric cylindrical nanoshell is achieved. Effects of geometric dimension, character material length, and vibration amplitude on the natural frequency and the generated voltage are discussed in detail. Results demonstrate that modified couple stress theory and large deformation theory are coupled together and interact with each other in the analyses of natural frequency and electromechanical behavior. Simultaneously taking nonlinearity and couple stress theory into account is necessary.

“…Vibration frequencies of shell were analyzed for various boundary conditions taking into account the effect of fluid. Shah et al [16] based on Love's thin-shell theory to investigate natural frequencies of full-filled fluid FG circular cylinder shells resting on Winkler and Pasternak elastic foundations. Wave propagation approach was employed to calculate.…”
This paper is presented to solve the nonlinear dynamic buckling of sandwich functionally graded circular cylinder shells filled with fluid. Governing equations are derived using the classical shell theory and the geometrical nonlinearity in von Karman-Donnell sense is taken into account. Solutions of the problem are established by using Galerkin’s method and Rung-Kutta method. Effects of thermal environment, parameters of geometric, volume fraction index k and fluid on dynamic responses of shells are investigated.
