An exact solution for free vibration of cross-ply laminated composite cylindrical shells with elastic restraint ends

Abstract In this paper, a new exact solution based on the classical shell theory (CST) for free vibration of cross-ply laminated composite cylindrical shells with elastic restraint ends is proposed. The present exact solution can be summed up in the following steps: Firstly, the displacement functions are constructed by the governing differential equations with the exact closed form solutions; Then, the artificial spring technology is introduced to simulate the general boundary conditions of the two end edges of shell; Thirdly, the equation for natural frequencies is obtained by means of the method of reverberation-ray matrix (MRRM); Lastly, the vibration results are presented by the modified golden section search (MGSS) algorithm. By comparing the present method with published papers, the accuracy of present method is verified. On the basis of that, some new exact nature frequencies and mode shapes of the cross-ply laminated composite cylindrical shells with various classical boundary conditions and elastic restraints are performed and they can be served as the benchmark data for the future.
