Review of studies on geometrically nonlinear vibrations and dynamics of circular cylindrical shells and panels, with and without fluid-structure interaction

摘要

This literature review focuses mainly on geometrically nonlinear (finite amplitude) free and forced vibrations of circular cylindrical shells and panels, with and without fluid-structure interaction. Work on shells and curved panels of different geometries is but briefly discussed. In addition, studies dealing with particular dynamical problems involving finite deformations, eg, dynamic buckling, stability, and flutter of shells coupled to flowing fluids, are also discussed. This review is structured as follows: after a short introduction on some of the fundamentals of geometrically nonlinear theory of shells, vibrations of shells and panels in vacuo are discussed. Free and forced vibrations under radial harmonic excitation (Section 2.2), parametric excitation (axial tension or compression and pressure-induced excitations) (Section 2.3), and response to radial transient loads (Section 2.4) are reviewed separately. Studies on shells and panels in contact with dense fluids (liquids) follow; some of these studies present very interesting results using methods also suitable for shells and panels in vacuo. Then, in Section 4, shells and panels in contact with light fluids (gases) are treated, including the problem of stability (divergence and flutter) of circular cylindrical panels and shells coupled to flowing fluid. For shells coupled to flowing fluid, only the case of axial flow is reviewed in this paper. Finally, papers dealing with experiments are reviewed in Section 5.
