TRANSVERSE VIBRATIONS OF A SHALLOW SPHERICAL DOME

Abstract

It is shown that the nondimensional roots of the frequency equation for nonsymmetric transverse vibrations of a clamped-edge shallow spherical dome depend upon a single shell geometric parameter. Numerical values of the frequency parameter are given in tabular and graphical form for an extensive range of shell geometries and mode numbers. A simplified version of the frequency equation is also presented and its accuracy discussed.
