Abstract
Abstract The dynamic stability of thin, laminated cylindrical shells under combined static and periodic axial forces is studied here using Love's theory for thin shells. A system of Mathieu–Hill equations is obtained by a normal-mode expansion of the equations of motion, the stability of which is examined by Bolotin's method. The dynamic instability regions are investigated for different lamination schemes. The effects of the length-to-radius and thickness-to-radius ratios of the cylinder on the instability regions are also examined.
