Symmetric and asymmetric vibrations of cylindrical shells

2005-09-09
The stability of cylindrical shells of arbitrary wall thickness subjected to uniform radial tensile or compressive dead-load traction is investigated. The material of the shell is assumed to be a polynomial compressible material which is homogeneous, isotropic, and hyperelastic. The governing equations are solved numerically using the multiple shooting method. The loss of stability occurs when the motions cease to be periodic. The effects of several geometric and material properties on the stress and the deformation fields are investigated.

Stability and asymmetric vibrations of pressurized compressible hyperelastic cylindrical shells
Akyüz, Uğurhan (1999-05-01)
Cylindrical shells of arbitrary wall thickness subjected to uniform radial tensile or compressive dead-load traction are investigated. The material of the shell is assumed to be homogeneous, isotropic, compressible and hyperelastic. The stability of the finitely deformed state and small, free, radial vibrations about this state are investigated using the theory of small deformations superposed on large elastic deformations. The governing equations are solved numerically using both the multiple shooting meth...
Stability and breathing motions of pressurized compressible hyperelastic spherical shells
Akyüz, Uğurhan (Elsevier BV, 2001-10-18)
The stability of homogeneous, isotropic, compressible, hyperelastic, thick spherical shells subjected to external dead-load traction are investigated within the context of the finite elasticity theory. The stability of the finitely deformed state and small, free, radial vibrations about this state are investigated using the theory of small deformations superposed on large elastic deformations. The frequencies of small free vibrations about the pre-stressed state are obtained numerically. The loss of stabili...
Transient response of an infinite elastic medium containing a spherical cavity subjected to torsion
Zakout, U; Akkas, Z; Tupholme, GE (2000-06-01)
An exact closed-form solution is obtained for the transient response of an infinite isotropic elastic medium containing a spherical cavity subjected to torsional surface loading using the residual variable method. The main advantage of the present approach is that it eliminates the computational problems arising in the existing methods which are primarily based on Fourier or Laplace transformation techniques. Extensive numerical results for the circumferential displacements and shear stresses at various loc...

Akyüz, Uğurhan (1997-11-01)
The stability and breathing motions about finitely deformed states of cylindrical shells of arbitrary wall thickness subjected to uniform dead load traction are investigated. The material is assumed to be a polynomial compressible material which is homogeneous, isotropic and hyperelastic.

Buckling of cylindrical metal shells on discretely supported ring beams
Sonat, Cem; Topkaya, Cem; Rotter, J. Michael (2015-08-01)
Silos in the form of cylindrical metal shells are usually supported on evenly spaced columns in applications where an access space is needed for the discharge of contained solids. In large silos a ring beam is used to distribute the column forces into the shell. The presence of discrete supports results in a circumferential non-uniformity of axial stresses in the shell. This non-uniformity leads to high local stresses that must be considered in assessing the possibility of shell buckling. Design standards p...
