Assessment of Axisymmetric Dynamic Snap-Through and Thermally Induced Vibrations in FGM Cylindrical Shells Under Instantaneous Heating
Abstract
This paper addresses the investigation of axisymmetric thermally induced vibrations in Functionally Graded Material (FGM) cylindrical shells. It considers temperature-dependent (TD) properties and geometric non-linearity (the von Karman effect). The study systematically solves a transient heat conduction equation using finite differences method and the Crank–Nicolson method. During the heating stages, the evaluation of thermal forces and moments takes place. Equations of motion are derived through the application of Hamilton’s principle. Spatial dependencies are discretized using the generalized Ritz method, while temporal dependencies are approximated using the β-Newmark method with Newton–Raphson linearization. A comparative analysis validates the procedure’s efficiency and precision. Parametric studies explore the influence of parameters, including the temperature-dependency material properties, geometric nonlinearity, and shell’s power-law index, providing valuable insights into FGM shell behavior under thermal shock.
