Buckling and free vibration behavior of a laminated cylindrical panel exposed to non-uniform thermal load is addressed in the present study. The approach comprises of three portions, in the first portion, heat transfer analysis is carried out to compute the non-uniform temperature fields, whereas second portion consists of static analysis wherein stress fields due to thermal load is obtained, and the last portion consists of buckling and prestressed modal analyzes to capture the critical buckling temperature as well as first five natural frequencies and associated mode shapes. Finite element is used to perform the numerical investigation. The detailed parametric study is carried out to analyze the effect of nature of temperature variation across the panel, laminate sequence and structural boundary constraints on the buckling and free vibration behavior. The relation between the buckling temperature of the panel under uniform temperature field and non-uniform temperature field is established using magnification factor. Among four cases considered in this study for position of heat sources, highest magnification factor is observed at the forefront curved edge of the panel where heat source is placed. It is also observed that thermal buckling strength and buckling mode shapes are highly sensitive to nature of temperature field and the effect is significant for the above-mentioned temperature field. Furthermore, it is also observed that the panel with antisymmetric laminate has better buckling strength. Free vibration frequencies and the associated mode shapes are significantly influenced by the non-uniform temperature variations.

This paper deals with general equations of motion for free vibration analysis response of thick three-layer doubly curved sandwich panels (DCSP) under simply supported boundary conditions (BCs) using higher order shear deformation theory. In this model, the face sheets are orthotropic laminated composite that follow the first order shear deformation theory (FSDT) based on Rissners-Mindlin (RM) kinematics field. The core is made of orthotropic material and its in-plane transverse displacements are modeled using the third order of the Taylor's series extension. It provides the potentiality for considering both compressible and incompressible cores. To find these equations and boundary conditions, Hamilton's principle is used. Also, the effect of trapezoidal shape factor for cross-section of curved panel element ($1{\pm}z/R$) is considered. The natural frequency parameters of DCSP are obtained using Galerkin Method. Convergence studies are performed with the appropriate formulas in general form for three-layer sandwich plate, cylindrical and spherical shells (both deep and shallow). The influences of core stiffness, ratio of core to face sheets thickness and radii of curvatures are investigated. Finally, for the first time, an optimum range for the core to face sheet stiffness ratio by considering the existence of in-plane stress which significantly affects the natural frequencies of DCSP are presented.

In this paper, the nonlinear cylindrical bending behavior of functionally graded nanocomposite plates reinforced by single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) is studied using an efficient and simple refined theory. This theory is based on assumption that the in-plane and transverse displacements consist of bending and shear components in which the bending components do not contribute toward shear forces and, likewise, the shear components do not contribute toward bending moments. The material properties of SWCNTs are assumed to be temperature-dependent and are obtained from molecular dynamics simulations. The material properties of functionally graded carbon nanotube-reinforced composites (FG-CNTCRs) are assumed to be graded in the thickness direction, and are estimated through a micromechanical model. The fundamental equations for functionally graded nanocomposite plates are obtained using the Von-Karman theory for large deflections and the solution is obtained by minimization of the total potential energy. The numerical illustrations concern the nonlinear bending response of FG-CNTRC plates under different sets of thermal environmental conditions, from which results for uniformly distributed CNTRC plates are obtained as comparators.

A new three-node triangular shell element based on higher order zig-zag theory is developed for laminated composite shells with multiple delaminations. The present higher order zig-zag shell theory is described in a general curvilinear coordinate system and in general tensor notation. All the complicated curvatures of surface including twisting curvatures can be described in an exact manner in the present shell element because this element is based on geometrically exact surface representation. The displacement field of the proposed finite element includes slope of deflection. which requires continuity between element interfaces. Thus the nonconforming shape function of Specht's three-node triangular plate bending element is employed to interpolate out-of-plane displacement. The present element passes the bending and twisting patch tests in flat surface configurations. The developed element is evaluated through the buckling problems of composite cylindrical shells with multiple delaminations. Through the numerical examples it is demonstrated that the proposed shell element is efficient because it has minimal degrees of freedom per node. The accuracy of the present element is demonstrated in the prediction of buckling loads and buckling modes of shells with multiple delaminations. The present shell element should serve as a powerful tool in the prediction of buckling loads and modes of multi-layered thick laminated shell structures with arbitrary-shaped multiple delaminations.

This paper deals with nonlinear dynamic stability of embedded piezoelectric nano-composite separators conveying pulsating fluid. For presenting a realistic model, the material properties of structure are assumed viscoelastic based on Kelvin-Voigt model. The separator is reinforced with single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) which the equivalent material properties are obtained by mixture rule. The separator is surrounded by elastic medium modeled by nonlinear orthotropic visco Pasternak foundation. The separator is subjected to 3D electric and 2D magnetic fields. For mathematical modeling of structure, three theories of classical shell theory (CST), first order shear deformation theory (FSDT) and sinusoidal shear deformation theory (SSDT) are applied. The differential quadrature method (DQM) in conjunction with Bolotin method is employed for calculating the dynamic instability region (DIR). The detailed parametric study is conducted, focusing on the combined effects of the external voltage, magnetic field, visco-Pasternak foundation, structural damping and volume percent of SWCNTs on the dynamic instability of structure. The numerical results are validated with other published works as well as comparing results obtained by three theories. Numerical results indicate that the magnetic and electric fields as well as SWCNTs as reinforcer are very important in dynamic instability analysis of structure.

Vibration analysis of rotating blade is the main purpose of this study. In the present work, general formulation is proposed to analyze the rotating shell-type structures including the effect of centrifugal force, Coriolis acceleration and initial twist. Furthermore, simplified equations are derived for the case of an open circular cylindrical shell. Based on the concept of degenerated shell element with the Reissner-Mindlin's assumptions, the finite element method is adopted for solving the governing equations. In addition, it is investigated the effect of thermal load on the vibration characteristics of pretwisted blade. Numerical results are summarized for the various parameters such as rotating speed, angle of pretwist and stacking sequence of a composite blade. Also, present results are compared with the previous works and experimental data.

In the present study, thermoelsatoplastic stresses and displacement for rotating hollow disks made of functionally graded materials (FGMs) has been investigated. The linear elastic-fully plastic condition is considered. The material properties except Poisson's ratio are assumed to vary in the radial direction as a power-law function. The heat conduction equation for the one-dimensional problem in cylindrical coordinates is used to obtain temperature distribution in the disk. The plastic model is based on the Tresca yield criterion and its associated flow rules under the assumption of perfectly plastic material behavior. Exact solutions of field equations for elastic and plastic deformations are obtained. It is shown that the elastoplastic response of the functionally graded (FG) disk is affected notably by the radial variation of material properties. It is also shown that, depending on material properties and disk dimensions, different modes of plastic deformation may occur.

복합재료를 효과적으로 사용하기 위하여 복합재료 구조물의 설계기준 개발을 위한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 금속 셀의 좌굴에 대한 설계시에는 초기 결함의 영향과 탄성임계좌굴응력을 근거로 한 녹다운계수(Knock-down factor)를 정의하는 것이 중요한 과정이나 복합재료 쉘의 좌굴에 대한 설계시에는 초기 결함에 대한 민감도가 거의 연구되어 있지 않은 실정이다. 복합재료 쉘의 좌굴거동에 영향을 주는 설계변수는 많기 때문에, 쉘의 설계시 이 변수들로 인한 초기 결함 민감도를 분석하기 위하여 많은 실험을 필요로 하고 있으며 실험 이외의 다른 방법으로서는 이미 검증된 수치모델을 사용하는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 복합재료 쉘요소를 개발하는데 사용된 이론을 요약, 정리 하였으며 수치예제를 통하여 본 연구에서 제안한 쉘요소의 정확성을 검증하였다. 그리고 축방향으로 압축을 받는 GFRP 곡선형 판넬의 설계시 고려해야 하는 각 변수들을 다양하게 변화시키면서 좌굴거동에 미치는 영향을 유한요소 모델링에 의해 고찰하였다. 방법으로서 초기 결합 및 두께의 진폭을 고려한 비선형 해석과 고유치 해석을 수행하였으며 이 결과를 이용하여 녹다운 계수를 산출하였다.

유한한 곡률을 가진 적층복합재 구조의 저속충격손상을 평가하기 위하여 곡률반경이 각각 50, 150, 300, 500 mm인 쉘 형태의 시편을 CFRP로 제작하여 충격실험을 행하고, 충격거동과 충격손상을 평판의 경우와 비교하여 고찰하였다. 실험결과는 비선형 유한요소해석의 결과와 비교하였다. 충격손상의 평가를 위해 충격거동을 측정한 결과 강성과 곡률반경이 쉘의 동적 충격거동에 큰 영향을 미치는 것을 확인하였으며, 충격거동과 충격손상은 밀접한 상호관계가 있으므로 구조의 곡률반경을 독립변수로 선정하여 충격손상을 평가하였다. 곡률반경이 감소하면서 복합재 쉘에는 동일한 충격조건에서 더 큰 최대 접촉력이 발생하였고, 가장 곡률이 심한 곡률반경 50 mm의 쉘에서는 평판의 약 1.5배에 이르는 최대 접촉력을 나타내었다. 따라서 동일한 충격조건 하에서 곡률반경 50 mm의 쉘에서는 평판의 경우보다 약 2.7때정도 더 큰 층간분리가 내부에 발생하였으며, 층간분리의 분포 또한 평판의 경우와는 달리 충격면에 가까운 계면에도 광범위하게 발생하는 경향이 곡륜반경이 감소할수록 더욱 현저하였다. 이는 곡률을 가진 구조가 평판 구조보다 손상저항성이 더 작은 것을 의미하므로 복합재료 설계 시 구조의 기하학적 형상을 반드시 고려하여야 한다.
