Vibrations studies of laminated composite cylindrical shells of arbitrary boundaries
Abstract
By means of Hamilton's principle, equations of motion and boundary conditions for free vibrations of laminated composite shells are obtained using classical shell theory. These equations are simplified to the case of cylindrical shells. Moreover, Navier solution is employed to solve for natural frequency parameters of a fully simply supported cylindrical shell. Also, for a thin cylindrical shell with various boundary conditions, the results were obtained by the Ritz and are compared with finite element results and good agreement is observed.
