FORCED VIBRATIONS OF SANDWICH STRUCTURES
Abstract
A method is presented for the determination of the frequency response functions of the components of deformation and of stress in orthotropic sandwich plates. It applies to the case of simply supported rectangular plates loaded by dynamic pressure normal to their planes. A similar method is presented for orthotropic sandwich cylindrical shells. The boundaries of the shell are assumed as simply supported, and the dynamic pressure is normal to the middle surface. In both problems, the analysis takes into account the transverse shear deformation of the core and the material damping of core and facings. The results are presented in the form of expressions suitable for numerical evaluation. (Author)
