Vibration analysis of variable thickness functionally graded toroidal shell segments
In this paper, for the first time, the nonlinear vibration response of toroidal shell segments with varying thickness subjected to external pressure is investigated analytically using Reddy’s third-order shear deformation shell theory. The variable thickness shells are made of functionally graded material (FGM) that is created from ceramic and metal constituents. The material properties of FGM shells are assumed to be gradually graded in the thickness direction according to a simple power-law distribution in terms of volume fractions of constituents. Equations of motion of variable thickness FGM toroidal shell segments are established based on Reddy’s third-order shear deformation shell theory with von Kármán nonlinearity. The Galerkin method and the Runge–Kutta method are used to solve the governing system of partial differential equations of motion, and then the nonlinear vibration response of variable thickness FGM toroidal shell segment is analyzed. A numerical analysis is also performed to show the effects of material and geometrical parameters on the nonlinear vibration response of variable thickness FGM toroidal shell segments.
