An extension of the finite element method to the stability analysis of shells of revolution under static axisymmetric loading is presented in this paper. A systematic procedure for the formulation of the problem is based upon the principle of virtual work. This procedure results in an eigenvalue problem. For solution, the shell of revolution is discretized into a series of conical frusta. The buckling mode in the circumferential direction is assumed, this assumption makes the problem economical for the computing time. The present method is applied to a number of shells of revolution, under axial compression or lateral pressure, and comparision are made with other theoretical results. The results show good agreement each other. The effects of aspect ratio, boundary conditions and buckling modes on the buckling strength of shells of revolution are studied. Also the optimum shape of cylindrical shell under uniform axial compression is obtained from the view point of structural stability.

This paper presents a fuzzy optimum design of axisymmetrically loaded thin shells of revolution. This paper consists of two parts, namely: an elastic analysis using the new curved element for finite element analysis developed in this study for axisymmetrically loaded thin shells of revolution, and the volume optimization on the basis of results evaluated from the elastic analysis. The curved element to meridian direction is used to develop the computer program. The results obtained from the computer program are compared by exact solution of each analytic example. The fuzzy optimizations of thin shells of revolution are done using [Model 2] which is in the form of a conventional crisp objective function and constraints with non-membership function, and nonlinear optimum GINO (General Interactive Optimizer) programming. In this paper, design examples show that the fuzzy optimum designs of the steel water tank and the steel dome roof could provide significant cost savings.

A three-dimensional (3-D) method of analysis is presented for determining the free vibration frequencies and mode shapes of thick, complete (not truncated) conical shells of revolution, Unlike conventional shell theories, which are mathematically two-dimensional (2-D). the present method is based upon the 3-D dynamic equations of elasticity. Displacement components $u_{r},\;u_{z},\;and\;u_{\theta}$ in the radial, axial, and circumferential directions, respectively, are taken to be sinusoidal in time, periodic in , and algebraic polynomials in the r and z directions. Potential (strain) and kinetic energies of the conical shells are formulated, the Ritz method is used to solve the eigenvalue problem, thus yielding upper bound values of the frequencies by minimizing the frequencies. As the degree of the polynomials is increased, frequencies converge to the exact values. Convergence to four-digit exactitude is demonstrated for the first five frequencies of theconical shells. Novel numerical results are presented for thick, complete conical shells of revolution based upon the 3-D theory. Comparisons are also made between the frequencies from the present 3-D Ritz method and a 2-D thin shell theory.

This work uses tensor calculus to derive a complete set of three-dimensional field equations well-suited for determining the behavior of thick shells of revolution having arbitrary curvature and variable thickness. The material is assumed to be homogeneous, isotropic and linearly elastic. The equations are expressed in terms of coordinates tangent and normal to the shell middle surface. The relationships are combined to yield equations of motion in terms of orthogonal displacement components taken in the meridional, normal and circumferential directions. Strain energy and kinetic energy functionals are also presented. The equations of motion and energy functionals may be used to determine the static or dynamic displacements and stresses in shells of revolution, including free and forced vibration and wave propagation.

A three-dimensional (3-D) method of analysis is presented for determining the free vibration frequencies and mode shapes of solid paraboloidal and complete (that is, without a top opening) paraboloidal shells of revolution with variable wall thickness. Unlike conventional shell theories, which are mathematically two-dimensional (2-D), the present method is based upon the 3-D dynamic equations of elasticity. The ends of the shell may be free or may be subjected to any degree of constraint. Displacement components $u_r,\;u_{\theta},\;and\;u_z$ in the radial, circumferential, and axial directions, respectively, are taken to be sinusoidal in time, periodic in ${\theta}$, and algebraic polynomials in the r and z directions. Potential (strain) and kinetic energies of the paraboloidal shells of revolution are formulated, and the Ritz method is used to solve the eigenvalue problem, thus yielding upper bound values of the frequencies by minimizing the frequencies. As the degree of the polynomials is increased, frequencies converge to the exact values. Convergence to four digit exactitude is demonstrated for the first five frequencies of the complete, shallow and deep paraboloidal shells of revolution with variable thickness. Numerical results are presented for a variety of paraboloidal shells having uniform or variable thickness, and being either shallow or deep. Frequencies for five solid paraboloids of different depth are also given. Comparisons are made between the frequencies from the present 3-D Ritz method and a 2-D thin shell theory.

A three-dimensional (3-D) method of analysis is presented for determining the free vibration frequencies of eccentric hemi-spherical shells of revolution with variable thickness. Unlike conventional shell theories, which are mathematically two-dimensional (2-D), the present method is based upon the 3-D dynamic equations of elasticity. Displacement components $u_r$, $u_{\Theta}$, and $u_z$ in the radial, circumferential, and axial directions, respectively, are taken to be periodic in ${\theta}$ and in time, and algebraic polynomials in the r and z directions. Potential and kinetic energies of eccentric hemi-spherical shells with variable thickness are formulated, and the Ritz method is used to solve the eigenvalue problem, thus yielding upper bound values of the frequencies by minimizing the frequencies. As the degree of the polynomials is increased, frequencies converge to the exact values. Convergence to three or four-digit exactitude is demonstrated for the first five frequencies of the shells. Numerical results are presented for a variety of eccentric hemi-spherical shells with variable thickness.

두꺼운 축대칭 쌍곡형 쉘의 고유진동수를 결정하는 3차원 해석법이 제시되었다. 수학적으로 2차원적인 전통적인 쉘 이론과는 달리, 본 연구의 해석법은 3차원적인 동탄성방정식을 근간으로 하였다. 반경방향, 원주방향, 축방향으로의 변위성분인 u/sub r/, u/sub θ/, u/sub z/를 시간에 대해서는 정현적으로, θ에 대해서는 주기적으로, r과 z방향으로는 대수 다항식으로 표현하였다. 쌍곡형 쉘의 위치(변형률)에너지와 운동에너지를 정식화하고 리츠법을 사용하여 고유치문제를 해결하였으며, 진동수의 최소화과정을 통해 고유진동수를 엄밀해의 상위경계치로 구하였다. 대수 다항식의 차수가 증가하면 진동수는 엄밀해에 수렴하게 된다. 축대칭 쌍곡형 쉘의 하위 5개의 진동수에 대해서 유효숫자 4자리까지의 수렴성 연구가 이루어졌다. 쌍곡형 쉘의 서로 다른 2개의 두께 비, 3개 의 축비(axis ratio), 3개의 shv이 비를 가진 총 18개의 형상을 지닌 자유 경계의 축대칭 쌍곡형 쉘의 수치결과를 도표화하였다. 프와송 비( ν)는 0.3으로 고정하였다. 본 연구의 해석법은 매우 두꺼운 쉘 뿐만 아니라 얇은 쉘에도 적용이 가능하다.

속이 빈 축대칭 회전체인 두꺼운 쉘의 정확한 고유진동수와 모우드형상을 결정하기 위해서 3차원적인 해석방법이 사용되었다. 이 축대칭 회전쉘의 모선을 직선으로 한정하지 않았으며, 쉘의 두께 또한 일정한 것으로 제한하지 않았다. 이 쉘의 중앙면은 임의의 곡율을 가지며, 쉘의 두께도 임의적으로 변한다. 자오선방향, 두께방향, 원주방향으로의 변위 성분인$U_\Phi, U_z, U_\theta$는 시간반응의 정현성(sinusoidal)과$\theta$방향으로의 주기성을 지니며,$\Phi$와 z 방향으로는 대수다항 식의 형태로 가정되었다. 이 쉘의 변형률에너지와 운동에너지를 공식화하였으며, 진동수의 최소화를 통해 상위경계치의 진동수를 구하고 다항식의 차수를 증가시켜 엄밀해에 수렴된 진동수를 구할 수 있다. 선형적으로 두께가 변하는 두꺼운 원추형쉘과 구형쉘에 대한 예를 통하여 하위 다섯 개의 진동수에 대해서 유효 숫자 4자리까지의 정확한 수렴성연구가 이루어졌다. 이 해석 방법은 두께가 매우 두꺼운 쉘 뿐만이 아니라 얇은 쉘에도 적용이 가능하다

A free vibration analysis is made of a moderately-thick toroidal shell based on a shear deformation (Timoshenko-Mindlin) shell theory. This work represents an extension of earlier work by the authors which was based on a thin (Kirchoff-Love) shell theory. The analysis uses a modal approach in the circumferential direction, and numerical results are found using the differential quadrature method (DQM). The analysis is first developed for a shell of revolution of arbitrary meridian, and then specialized to a complete circular toroidal shell. A second analysis, based on the three-dimensional theory of elasticity, is presented to cover thick shells. The shear deformation theory is validated by comparing calculated results with previously published results for fifteen cases, found using thin shell theory, moderately-thick shell theory, and the theory of elasticity. Consistent agreement is observed in the comparison of different results. New frequency results are then given for moderately-thick and thick toroidal shells, considered to be completely free. The results indicate the usefulness of the shear deformation theory in determining natural frequencies for toroidal shells.
