Abstract: In this paper, the free flexural vibrations of a partially fluid-loaded simply supported circular cylindrical shell are studied; the fluid is assumed to be inviscid and to present a free-surface ...

Abstract: Geometrically nonlinear vibrations of circular cylindrical panels with different boundary conditions and subjected to harmonic excitation are numerically investigated. The Donnell’s nonlinear ...

Abstract: The aeroelastic stability of simply supported, circular cylindrical shells in supersonic flow is investigated by using both linear aerodynamics (first-order piston theory) and nonlinear aerodynamics ...

Abstract: A theoretical approach to study breathing vibrations of cylindrical shells with horizontal axis, partially filled with liquid, is delineated and the results of some modal tests conducted on an ...

Abstract: The lateral vibrations of winding tapes are investigated by using a second order linear model, where lateral indicates the direction parallel to the reel rotation axis. A boundary condition ...

Abstract: This paper is concerned with the virtual mass effect due to the presence of water on the natural frequencies of free-edge annular plates resting on free surface or completely submerged, which ...

Abstract: The nonlinear ordinary differential equations describing the dynamics of a fluid filled circular cylindrical shell, obtained in Part 1 of the present study, is studied by using a second order ...

Abstract: The response-frequency relationship in the vicinity of a resonant frequency, the occurrence of travelling wave response and the presence of internal resonances are investigated for simply supported, ...

Abstract: The stability of circular cylindrical shells with supported ends in compressible, inviscid axial flow is investigated. Nonlinearities due to finite-amplitude shell motion are considered by using ...
