“…Typically, FG shell structures were presented using: (i) Kirchhoff-Love theory, Chi and Chung (2006), where the shear strains are assumed zero, which is not acceptable for FG shell; (ii) the First-order Shear Deformation Theory (FSDT) (Praveen and Reddy 1998;Thai and Kim 2015), which gives a correct overall assessment. Notice that the shear correction factors should be incorporated to adjust the transverse shear stiffness; (iii) the High-order Shear Deformation Theory (HSDT) (Neves et al 2012;Wali et al 2014Wali et al , 2015Frikha et al 2016) in which the equations of motion are more complicated to obtain than those of the FSDT; among other theories. …”

In this paper, a geometrically nonlinear analysis of functionally graded material (FGM) shells is investigated using Abaqus software. A user defined subroutine (UMAT) is developed and implemented in Abaqus/Standard to study the FG shells in large displacements and rotations. The material properties are introduced according to the integration points in Abaqus via the UMAT subroutine. The predictions of static response of several non-trivial structure problems are compared to some reference solutions in order to verify the accuracy and the effectiveness of the new developed nonlinear solution procedures. All the results indicate very good performance in comparison with references. Lee et al. 2009). Typically, FG shell structures were presented using: (i) Kirchhoff-Love theory, Chi and Chung (2006), where the shear strains are assumed zero, which is not acceptable for FG shell; (ii) the First-order Shear Deformation Theory (FSDT) (Praveen and Reddy 1998;Thai and Kim 2015), which gives a correct overall assessment.

KeywordsIt is certainly plausible that linear finite element (FE) models cannot be able to accurately predict the structural response presenting large elastic deformations and finite rotations. Indeed, according to Yu et al. (2015), several practical problems of FG structures require a geometrically non-linear formulation, such as the post-buckling behavior of structures used in aeronautical, aerospace as well as in mechanical and civil engineering. In such cases, it becomes crucial to develop efficient and accurate nonlinear FE models.It is well known that analytical solutions of shell problems are very limited. Hence, most of reference solutions are previously reported numerical solutions. Particularly, for FE geometric nonlinear analysis of FG shells, several research papers are surveyed (Praveen and Reddy 1998;Reddy 2000;Kattimani and Ray 2015;Duc et al. 2017; Reddy 2007a, 2007b;Alinia and Ghannadpour 2009;Phung-Van et al. 2014;Kim et al. 2008;Hajlaoui et al. 2017;Frikha and Dammak 2017;Asemi et al. 2014 andAnsari et al. 2016). In these references, a number of theoretical formulation and finite element models based on von Karman, Kirchhoff-Love, FSDT and HSDT theories were proposed to study the geometrically non-linear behavior of FGMs Structures.Hosseini Kordkheili and Naghdabadi (2007) derived a FE formulation for the geometrically nonlinear thermoelastic analysis of FGM plates and shells using the updated Lagrangian approach. Later, Zhao and Liew (2009) conducted a geometrically non-linear analysis of FGM shells under mechanical and thermal loading using the element-free kp-Ritz method. The formulation was based on the modified version of Sander's non-li...

An analytical method for the three-dimensional vibration analysis of a functionally graded cylindrical shell integrated by two thin functionally graded piezoelectric (FGP) layers is presented. The first-order shear deformation theory is used to model the electromechanical system. Nonlinear equations of motion are derived by considering the von Karman nonlinear strain-displacement relations using Hamilton's principle. The piezoelectric layers on the inner and outer surfaces of the core can be considered as a sensor and an actuator for controlling characteristic vibration of the system. The equations of motion are derived as partial differential equations and then discretized by the Navier method. Numerical simulation is performed to investigate the effect of different parameters of material and geometry on characteristic vibration of the cylinder. The results of this study show that the natural frequency of the system decreases by increasing the non-homogeneous index of FGP layers and decreases by increasing the non-homogeneous index of the functionally graded core. Furthermore, it is concluded that by increasing the ratio of core thickness to cylinder length, the natural frequencies of the cylinder increase considerably.

“…The characteristics of beam-mode stability of fluid-conveying shell systems were investigated by Shen et al (2014) for shells with boundary conditions, using a FEM algorithm. Wali et al (2015) studied free vibration response of FGM shells by using an efficient three-dimensional shell model.

The aim of this study is to develop a semi-analytical method to investigate fluid-structure coupling of concentric double shells with different lengths and elastic behaviours. Co-axial shells constitute a cylindrical circular container and a baffle submerged inside the stored fluid. The container shell is made of functionally graded materials with mechanical properties changing through its thickness continuously. The baffle made of steel is fixed along its top edge and submerged inside fluid such that its lower edge freely moves. The developed approach is verified using a commercial finite element computer code. Although the model is presented for a specific case in the present work, it can be generalized to investigate coupling of shellplate structures via fluid. It is shown that the coupling between concentric shells occurs only when they vibrate in a same circumferential mode number, n. It is also revealed that the normalized vibration amplitude of the inner shell is about the same as that of the outer shell, for narrower radial gaps. Moreover, the natural frequencies of the fluid-coupled system gradually decrease and converge to the certain values as the gradient index increases.
