Abstract

For the advanced frequency study of thick functionally graded material (FGM) circular cylindrical shells, it is interesting to consider the extra effects of nonlinear coefficient term in third-order shear deformation theory (TSDT) of displacements on the calculation of varied shear correction coefficient. The formulation for the advanced nonlinear shear correction coefficient are based on the energy equivalence principle. The values of nonlinear shear correction coefficient are usually functions of nonlinear coefficient term of TSDT, power-law exponent parameter and environment temperature. The free vibration frequencies of thick FGM circular cylindrical shells are investigated with the simply homogeneous equation by considering that simultaneous effects of the TSDT, the nonlinear shear correction coefficient of transverse shear force and the two direction of mode shapes. The novelty is more important and reasonable for the thick FGM circular cylindrical shells, especially for the ratio of length to thickness is five by considering the effects of advanced nonlinear shear correction coefficient and nonlinear coefficient term of TSDT on the advanced calculation of fundamental first natural frequencies.
