RESPONSE OF MULTILAYERED CYLINDRICAL SHELLS IN VACUO AND IN ACOUSTIC MEDIUM.

Abstract

The study deals with the response of multilayered composite thin cylindrical shells in vacuo and the associated radiated farfield pressure in an infinite acoustic medium. The shells considered are three- and five-layered ones, vibrating under surface harmonic line and ring loads. The alternated isotropic layers, placed symmetrically about the middle surface of a shell, are made of aluminum and viscoelastic materials, such as natural rubber and synthetic polymers. (Author)
