“…Linear and nonlinear dynamics of laminated composite cylindrical shells are widely investigated in the literatures . Among them, there is also an specific focus and concern on the dynamic response, instability and buckling analyses of the composite cylindrical shells under impulse load [5,6,8,11,22,28,34]. In addition, some researchers have simulated the responses of the GRE composite structures using the experimental and numerical approaches and some of the contributions in the field are reviewed in the continuation.…”
