In this paper, an analytical approach for global buckling of ring-stiffened sandwich cylindrical shells is presented with layerwise theory (LWT). Appropriate displacement functions are assumed ...

The present work describes the use of a transfer matrix method to define the acoustic behavior of multilayered and periodic baffled curved shells consisting of a generic arrangement of homogeneous and ...

Abstract: An approach is proposed in this paper to analysis the decay characteristic of near field evanescent waves from a finite cylindrical shell. Firstly, the wave-number spectrum method is used to ...

The dynamic behavior of cylindrical shells is essential in many practical applications. These include in-vacuum and coupled vibrations of structures with contained fluids. Closed-form solutions are ...

ABSTRACT: The static buckling load of an imperfect circular cylindrical shell is here determined asymptotically with the assumption that the normal displacement can be expanded in a double Fourier ...
