The theoretical method is developed to investigate the vibration characteristics of the combined cylindrical shells with an annular plate joined to the shell at any arbitrary axial position. The structural rotational coupling between shell and plate is simulated using the rotational artificial spring. For the translational coupling, the continuity conditions for the displacements of shell and plate are used. For the uncoupled annular plate, the transverse motion is considered and the in-plane motions are not. And the additional transverse and in-plane motions of the coupled annular plate by shell deformation are considered in analysis. Theoretical formulations are based on Love's thin shell theory. The frequency equation of the combined shell with an annular plate is derived using the Rayleigh-Ritz approach. The effect of inner-to-outer radius ratio, axial position and thickness of annular plate on vibration characteristics of combined cylindrical shells is studied. To demonstrate the validity of present theoretical method, the finite element analysis is performed.

This study dealt with the free vibration of two identical rectangular plates coupled with fluid. In order to investigate the vibration characteristics of fluid-coupled rectangular plates, an analytical method based on the finite Fourier series expansion and Rayleigh-Ritz method was suggested. A commercial computer code, ANSYS was used to perform finite element analysis and we investigated the vibration characteristics with mode shapes and natural frequencies. As a result, the transverse vibration modes, in-phase and out-of-phase, were observed alternately in the fluid-coupled system. The effect of fluid bounding and plate boundary condition on the fluid-coupled natural frequency were investigated. It was shown that the mode numbers increased, the normalized natural frequencies monotonically increased.

This paper introduces a newly designed pendulum system that enables the more accurate boservation of dynamic behaviour arising from both horizontal and vertical(i.e. two dimension) excitation. First, experiments were carried out to examine the frequency responses of the devised pendulum system. Interestingly, experimental results for the three excitation angles of 22, 32 and 48 degree show 'new' jump phenomena. For the further understanding of these phenomena, experimental investigationhas been made to identify the equation of motion of the pendulum system from experimental data. This attempt has revealed that the viscous, coulomb and aerodynamic damping factors are involved in the equation of motion. By applying the Ritz averaging method to the equation, it becomes apparent that the jumping phenomena of the pendulum system in this work is more theoretically understood.

The main concern of numerical dynamic analysis of large structures is to find an acceptable solution with fewer mode shapes and less computational efforts. Component mode method utilizes substructure technique to reduce the degree of freedom but have a disadvantage to not consider the dynamic characteristics of loads. Ritz Vector method consider the load characteristics but requires many integrations and errors are accumulated. In this study, to improve the effectiveness of component mode method, Lanczos algorithm is introduced. To prove the effectiveness of this method, example structure are analyzed and the results are compared with SAP90.

High speed vehicles are subjected to high thermal loadings due to aerodynamic heating during ascent and reentry. Since a thermal protection system panel is mechanically constrained, it may cause thermal buckling under excessive thermal loadings. The thermal buckling could disturb the field of flow and make aerodynamic characteristics unstable. It is thus necessary to design the thermal protection system panel to prevent thermal buckling. This study defines the analytical model of temperature distribution using the finite difference method for the thermal protection system panel with large temperature differences inside and outside. This paper proposes the approximate model of the thermal buckling characteristics for the thermal protection system panel through the use of the Ritz method. The validity of the present method was verified by comparing the results of the finite element analysis. Furthermore, this research performs the parametric analysis of the thermal buckling characteristics for the thermal protection system panel by using the approximate model.

This paper is concerned with the free vibration analysis of an annular plate with boundary conditions of simply supported-free, clamped-free and free-free, respectively. Exact solutions for the natural frequency and mode of an annular plate can be obtained by solving the differential equation but other methods such as the Rayleigh-Ritz method and the finite element method can be also used. In this research, we applied the Independent Coordinate Coupling Method(ICCM) to the annular plate and prove that the ICCM can accurately predict the natural frequency and mode shape of the annular plate. The numerical results show that the ICCM can be used effectively for the free vibration problem of plate with a hole compared to the Rayleigh-Ritz method and the finite element method.

This paper presents the free vibration analysis of a circular plate with a concentric square hole. The present problem deals with the numerical calculation of the natural frequencies and mode shapes of vibration of the structure by means of Independent Coordinate Coupling Method (ICCM). In this study, the boundary condition is the edge of the square hole is free and the outer circular plate is simply supported. Due to the geometric abnormality, this analysis does not permit an exact solution. Since the ICCM employs coordinate systems corresponding to each domain independently, the kinetic and potential energy expressions necessary for the Rayleigh-Ritz method can be easily obtained. Lastly, the kinematic relation is imposed. In this way, the eigenvalue problem can be easily set up. The numerical results show the efficacy of the ICCM and changes in natural frequencies and modes due to the square hole size.

In this study buckling behavior of orthotropic plate with a longitudinal stiffener under in-plane linearly distributed loads is investigated. All edges of plate are assumed to be simply supported and the stiffener is considered as a beam element. For the equation of buckling analysis Rayleigh-Ritz method is employed. The upper limit of the critical stress at various location of stiffener is determined by using Lagrangian multiplier method. Buckling analysis is performed for the various position of stiffener and for the various width ratios between plate and stiffener. The parametric study shows that, when four edges of plate are simply supported, the most effective position for a longitudinal stiffener is at the location of which the upper limit of the stress is the maximum.

An analysis of the frequency parameters and vibrational modes is described for a rectangular plate. Double Fourier sine series is used as a modal displacement functions of a rectangular plate and applied to the free vibration analysis of a rectangular plate under various boundary conditions. The frequency parameters obtained by the double Fourier sine series method are compared with those obtained by the theory of finite element method and Ritz method. Frequency parameters are presented for the various aspect ratios for plate. The first four modal shapes for the rectangular plate under various boundary conditions are accurately described.
