Highlights • Free vibrations of an FGM anisogrid lattice hell perfectly filled with viscoelastic foams is investigated. • Modeling of the lattice part composed of spiral and hoop ribs is accomplished according to a global continuous standard based on orthotropic deep shells. • Kelvin–Voigt model is used to model the viscoelastic properties of the media. • Chebyshev collocation-based semi-numerical method is implemented to detect the system's frequencies and loss factors.

Abstract Our aim with this paper is to model and investigate the vibration and damping of a new hybrid composite shell. The considered composite cylindrical shell includes an FGM anisogrid lattice shell perfectly filled with viscoelastic foams. The modeling of the lattice part composed of spiral and hoop ribs is accomplished according to a global continuous standard based on orthotropic deep shells. The distribution pattern of the metal and ceramic constituents along the lattice ribs is specified by a power law. The homogenizations between ceramic and metal phases within the ribs, as well as between the FGM lattice structure and foam, are governed by the rule of mixtures. Based on the transferred Kelvin–Voigt viscoelastic scheme, the dynamic moduli of the foam portion are acquired. Because viscoelastic foam is a soft material, the higher-order shear deformation shell theory is used to estimate the system's displacement components. After emanating the dynamic equations by Hamilton's principle, the Chebyshev collocation-based semi-numerical method is implemented to detect the system's frequencies and loss factors. The comprehensive results show the role of each composite characteristic in the vibration and damping behavior of the defined structure.
