These shells undergo finite (unlimited in size) rotations and large overall motions but with small strains. A singularity-free parametrization of the rotation field is adopted. The constitutive equations, derived with respect to laminate curvilinear coordinates, are applicable to shell elements with an arbitrary number of orthotropic layers and where the material principal axes can vary from layer to layer. A careful consideration of the consistent linearization procedure pertinent to the proposed parametrization of finite rotations leads to symmetric tangent stiffness matrices. The matrix formulation adopted here makes it possible to implement the present formulation within the framework of the finite element method as a straightforward task.展开更多

Analyticalsolution of the temperature in the shells with the known temperature on the surfaces waspresent. The thinning layer approach was introduced to simplify the three-dimensionalheat conduction equation. Firstly, the layered shell was divided into N thinner layers. Thegoverning equation was simplified by replacing the variable r by r0 in the center line ofevery thin layer. The general solutions of temperature satisfying the simplified threedimensionalgoverning equation in single-layered shell were deduced in the cylindricalcoordinate system. Then, the temperature and heat flux relationships between the surfacescould be found by transferring matrixes. According to the continuities of temperature andheat flux in the interface of the laminates, the temperature and heat flux relationships ofthe surfaces were derived. With the temperature condition on the surfaces, the unknowncoefficients in the general solution of temperature were obtained. Finally, the effects fromthe thinning layer approach were eliminated by analyzing different numbers of thin layers.The validity and accuracy of the proposal method were proved from the convergence andcomparison studies. And several numerical examples were studied to investigated thetemperature effects from surface temperatures, geometric size of the shells andcomposition of layers.展开更多

The material properties of the composite are affected hy the variation of temperature and moisture, and are hosed on a micromechanical model of a laminate. The governing equations are based on the classical laminated shell theory, and including hygrothermal effects. The nonlinear prebuckling deformations and initial geometric imperfections of the shell were both taken into account. A boundary layer theory of shell buckling was extended to the case of laminated cylindrical shells under hygrothermal environments, and a singular peturbation technique was employed to determine buckling loads and postbuckling equilibrium paths. The numerical illustrations concern the postbuckling behavior of perfect and imperfect, cross-ply laminated cylindrical shells under different sets of environmental conditions. The influences played by temperature rise, the degree of moisture concentration, fiber volume fraction, shell geometric parameter, total number of plies, stacking sequences and initial geometric imperfections are studied.展开更多

Sound transmission through an infinite laminated composite cylindrical shell is studied in the context of the transmission of airborne sound into the aircraft interior. The shell is immersed in an external fluid medium and contains internal fluid. Airflow in the external fluid medium moves with a constant velocity.

Then, considering a simply supported laminated shallow shell with damage and under normal load, an analytical solution is presented by using finite difference method to obtain the interlaminar stresses. Numer- ical results show, the stiffness of the shell is weakened, greater absolute values of displacements as well as smaller interlaminar stresses are obtained by interfacial damage. When the interfacial damage is further increased, delamination occurs obviously under normal pulling load and pure shear slip occurs under normal pressure load. The portion of the load undertaken by the two sides of the interface is more different. Different mechanical behaviors are shown in both sides of the interface, and the discontinuation of stresses and displacements takes place in the interface.展开更多
