The Vibrations of an Infinite Orthotropic Layered Viscoelastic Shell in an Acoustic Medium,

摘要

The solution of the vibration of an orthotropic layered cylindrical viscoelastic shell in an acoustic medium is derived through the application of the theorem of correspondence to the shell equations of motion. The acoustic fluid is modelled through a finite difference scheme. Numerical results for the normal displacements are in exact agreement with known elastic solutions. (Author)
