FREE VIBRATIONS OF CYLINDRICAL SHELLS,
Abstract
General analysis of free vibration of closed circular cylindrical shells is based on fundamental relationships taken from the theories of shells. The shells are radially supported at their faces. The effect of terms usually neglected in equations of shell motion on frequency is discussed. The simplifying assumptions concerning shell behavior which are associated with these terms are examined for a wide range of variations in shell geometry. Expressions are extended for free vibration of orthogonally anisotropic shells, and a formula for their natural frequencies is obtained. Two-layer shells stiffened by stringers and transverse frames and sandwich shells are analyzed as particular cases.
