Finite Element Analysis of Buckling of Thin Cylindrical Shell Subjected to Uniform External Pressure
One of the common failure modes of thin cylindrical shell subjected external pressure is buckling. The buckling pressure of these shell structures are dominantly affected by the geometrical imperfections present in the cylindrical shell which are very difficult to alleviate during manufacturing process. In this work, only three types of geometrical imperfection patterns are considered namely (a...
متن کاملVibration analysis of FGM cylindrical shells under various boundary conditions
In this paper, a unified analytical approach is proposed to investigate vibrational behavior of functionally graded shells. Theoretical formulation is established based on Sanders’ thin shell theory. The modal forms are assumed to have the axial dependency in the form of Fourier series whose derivatives are legitimized using Stokes transformation. Material properties are assumed to be graded in...
متن کاملAcoustic Radiation from Finite Length Cylindrical Shells Using Boundary Element Method
The radiation efficiency of an acoustically thick circular cylindrical shell has been examined by calculations using the boundary element method for three different boundary conditions, and by conducting experiments using point excitation with the boundary conditions being free at both ends. Both the numerical and experimental results indicate that the radiation efficiency attains a value of un...
متن کاملAn Efficient Strain Based Cylindrical Shell Finite Element
The need for compatibility between degrees of freedom of various elements is a major problem encountered in practice during the modeling of complex structures; the problem is generally solved by an additional rotational degree of freedom [1-3]. This present paper investigates possible improvements to the performances of strain based cylindrical shell finite element [4] by introducing an additio...
متن کاملNew DKFT Elements for the Finite Element Analysis of Thin Viscoelastic Plates
In this paper, finite element analysis of thin viscoelastic plates is performed by proposing new plate elements using complex Fourier shape functions. New discrete Kirchhoff Fourier Theory (DKFT) plate elements are constructed by the enrichment of quadratic function fields in a six-noded triangular plate element with complex Fourier radial basis functions. In order to illustrate the validity...
