Tower shell design is very important because tower takes about 20% of overall wind turbine cost. This paper contains procedure of tower analysis and optimization content. Some of requirements like eigenfreauency and buckling evaluated by numerical method, strength, are derived by analytic method. But strength and fatigue can be derived by mathematical method simply.

복합재료는 강도-무게비가 다른 재료들에 비해 훨씬 크기 때문에 부재의 좌굴문제가 대단히 중요하게 취급되며, 본 논문에서는 축방향 압축력을 받는 복합재료로 된 쉘 부재의 좌굴해석이 수행된다. 이 재료는 일반적으로 이방성 재료 특성을 나타내 보이나, 섬유들이 한 방향으로만 배치되어 있는 경우 섬유방향에 연직한 평면에서의 강도나 탄성계수들은 모두 일정한 횡 등방성 재료성질을 가진 것으로 간주할 수 있다. 9 절점 degenerate 쉘 유한요소를 사용한 선형안정해석, LUSAS 범용 프로그램을 이용한 구조해석, 그리고 고전적 쉘 좌굴방정식에 의한 해석들을 수행하였으며, 그 결과들을 서로 비교, 분석하였다. 고려된 등방성 재료나 횡 등방성 재료의 경우 모두, degenerate 유한요소해석으로 계산한 임계하중들은 고전적 이론해에 의한 결과들 보다 낮았으며, LUSAS 결과들과는 거의 같았다. 이는 degenerate 유한요소에 의한 선형안정해석 결과들이 안전측에 듬을 의미하며, 복합재료로 된 쉘 구조물의 좌굴해석에 degenerate 유한요소를 효율적으로 적용할 수 있음을 의미한다.

본 연구에서는 Taguchi 방법에 사용된 직교배열 이용 실험 계획법에 의한 최 적화 방법으로 보강된 복합재 쉘 구조의 좌굴강도 최적화를 수행하고 타당성을 고찰하 였다.한 방향의 압축하중을 받는 단순 지지된 복합재 평판과 Cut-out을 가진 원통 형 판넬의 보강재 및 섬유방향 최적 설계에 본 방법을 적용시켜 본 결과, 현저한 설계 개선과 아울러 각 설계 변수가 좌굴강도에 미치는 영향을 파악할 수 있었다. 특히 이 방법은 함수의 미분값을 이용한 민감도 해석대신에 함수값의 평균치 분석(ANOM)및 분산 분석(ANOVA)을 사용하기 때문에 설계변수의 변화에 덜 민감한 설계를 얻을 수 있 다.

In this paper, dynamic buckling of truncated conical shell made of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) composite is studied. In aerospace industries, this category of structures is utilized extensively due to wide range of engineering applications. To calculate the effective material properties of the nanocomposite, The Mori-Tanaka model is applied. Also, the motion equations are derived with the assistance of the first order shear deformation theory (FSDT), Hamilton's principle and energy method. Besides, In order to solve motion equations and analyze dynamic instability region (DIR) of the structure, mixed model of differential quadrature method (DQM) and Bolotin's method is used. Moreover, investigation of the different parameters effects such as geometrical parameters and volume fraction of CNTs on the analysis of the DIR of the structure is done. In accordance with the obtained results, the DIR will occur at higher frequencies by increasing the volume fraction of CNTs.

This paper focuses on the buckling capacity of a hybrid grid shell. The eigenvalue buckling, geometrical non-linear elastic buckling and elasto-plastic buckling analyses of the hybrid structure were carried out. Then the influences of the shape and scale of imperfections on the elasto-plastic buckling loads were discussed. Also, the effects of different structural parameters, such as the rise-to-span ratio, beam section, area and pre-stress of cables and boundary conditions, on the failure load were investigated. Based on the comparison between elastic and elasto-plastic buckling loads, the effect of material non-linearity on the stability of the hybrid barrel vault is found significant. Furthermore, the stability of a hybrid barrel vault is sensitive to the anti-symmetrical distribution of loads. It is also shown that the structures are highly imperfection sensitive which can greatly reduce their failure loads. The results also show that the support conditions pose significant effect on the elasto-plastic buckling load of a perfect hybrid structure.

In this paper, numerical methods for wrinkle prediction of thin membrane were studied by finite element analysis. Techniques using membrane and shell elements were applied for triangular membrane. In case of membrane element method, the wrinkling was accounted for by the wrinkle algorithm of property modification, which was implemented to ABAQUS as a user subroutine. In case of shell method, geometrically nonlinear post-buckling analysis was performed to obtain the wrinkle deformation explicitly. The wrinkling deformation was induced by seeding the mesh with a random geometric imperfection. The results were investigated focusing on the mesh convergence and the solution accuracy.

The linearized buckling problem is considered for an isotropic clamped-clamped cylindrical shell with an oblique end. A theoretical solution based on the Budiansky shell theory is developed, and numerical results are determined using the differential quadrature method. In formulating the solutions, the surface of the shell is developed onto a plane, and the resulting irregular domain is then mapped, using blending functions, onto a square parent domain. The analysis is carried out in the parent domain. Convergence, validation, and parametric studies are conducted for a uniform external pressure loading. Results determined are compared with finite element results. The paper ends with an appropriate set of conclusions.

The strength, deformation and buckling of a large engineering structure consisting of four ellipsoidal shells, two cylindrical shells with stiffening ribs and large holes, one conical shell and three pairs of large flanges under external pressure, self weight and heat sinks have been analysed by using two kinds of five different finite elements - four assumed displacement finite elements (shell element with curved surfaces, axisymmetric conical shell element with variable thickness, three dimensional eccentric beam element, axisymmetric solid revolutionary element) and an assumed stress hybrid element (a 3-dimensional special element developed by authors). The compatibility between different elements is enforced. The strength analyses of the top cover and the main vessel are described in the paper.

This paper presents the optimum design of cylindrical shell under external pressure loading. Two kinds of material, Al7075-T6, Ti-6Al-4V, are considered. For each material, the design variable is a thickness of the unstiffened parallel middle body shell, and the state variable, constraint, is hoop stress and the object .function is total weight of the cylindrical shell. Optimization is performed by conventional FE Program, ANSYS. In addition, buckling analysis is performed for the middle body of the cylindrical shell. Finally, we calculates the payload of the cylindrical shell to keep neutral buoyancy with optimized thickness in deep-sea applications.
