Abstract
Theme T paper considers the transient response of a circular cylindrical panel to arbitrary time-dependent loads. The study is based on the improved shell theory which includes effects of transverse shear and rotatory inertias. The governing equations of motion are solved by an explicit numerical procedure. Results are obtained for panels subjected to a timevarying normal load uniformly distributed over the entire panel surface. They are compared with findings based on the classical shell theory. Noteworthy differences between the two theories are obtained.
