In this paper, classical thin shell theory is used to analyze vibration and critical speed of simply supported rotating orthotropic cylindrical shell. The effects of centrifugal and Coriolis forces due to the rotation are considered in the present for‌mulation.. In addition, axial load is applied on cylinder as a ratio of critical buckling load. Finally the effects of orthotropic ratio, materia...

Arteries can buckle axially under applied critical buckling pressure due to a mechanical instability. Buckling can cause arterial tortuosity leading to flow irregularities and stroke. Genetic mutations in elastic fiber proteins are associated with arterial tortuosity in humans and mice, and may be the result of alterations in critical buckling pressure. Hence, the objective of this study is to ...

This paper deals with the nonlinear buckling and post-buckling of sandwich cylindrical panels non-uniform porous core functionally graded face sheets. The imperfect are subjected to axial loading on elastic foundation. Based Donnell shell theory, von Kármán geometrical nonlinearity, governing equations derived. effects foundation, various panel characteristics, porosity parameters, thickness in...

Analysis of static bending, free vibration and buckling behaviours of functionally graded microplates is investigated in this study. The main idea is to use the isogeometric analysis in associated with novel four-variable refined plate theory and quasi-3D theory. More importantly, the modified couple stress theory with only one material length scale parameter is employed to effectively capture ...

The nanomechanical properties of micropatterned nanomembranes containing gold nanoparticle microarrays were investigated with the buckling instability method. An unusual, complex pattern of buckling instability was observed for the nanoscale polymeric films under compressive stresses. An intriguing two-stage wrinkling was observed for these nanoscale films with spatially correlated instabilitie...

Individual multiwalled carbon nanotubes with a range of aspect ratios are subjected to cyclic axial compression to large strains using atomic force microscopy. Distinct elastic buckling and post-buckling phenomena are observed reproducibly and are ascribed to Euler, asymmetric shell buckling (i.e., kinking), and symmetric shell buckling. These show agreement with continuum theories that range f...

With the exploitation of offshore oil and gas gradually moving to deep water, higher temperature differences and pressure differences are applied to the pipeline system, making the global buckling of the pipeline more serious. For unburied deep-water pipelines, the lateral buckling is the major buckling form. The initial imperfections widely exist in the pipeline system due to manufacture defec...

Structural buckling failure due to high external hydrostatic pressure is a major consideration in designing rings and long cylindrical shell-type structures. This paper presents a direct approach for enhancing buckling stability limits of thin-walled rings/long cylinders that are fabricated from multiangle fibrous laminated composite lay-ups. The mathematical formulation employs the classical l...

Edge effects play an important role for many properties of graphene. While most works have focused on the effects from isolated free edges, we present a novel knotting phenomenon induced by the interactions between a pair of free edges in graphene, and investigate its effect on the buckling of monolayer graphene. Upon compression, the buckling of graphene starts gradually in the form of two buc...
