Axially Symmetric Vibrations of Finite Cylindrical Shells of Various Wall Thicknesses – II
Using the exact three-dimensional equations of linear elasticity, the vibrational characteristics of circular cylindrical shells of various wall thicknesses and finite length have been studied. The motion of the shell is assumed to be axially symmetric but anti-symmetric about its central
plane. The stress-free conditions on the lateral surface of the shell have been satisfied exactly and the real, imaginary and complex branches of the dispersion spectra have been superposed to satisfy the stress-free conditions at the flat ends of the shell to a good degree of accuracy. The
aspect ratio curves, the residual stresses at the flat ends and the displacements have been given for various wall thicknesses.
