Abstract
In this article, free vibration of the hard-coating cantilever cylindrical shell is investigated considering the elastic constraints at the clamped end. Love's first approximation theory and Rayleigh–Ritz method are applied to build the analytical model of hard-coating cylindrical shell. In the modeling process, orthogonal polynomials are used as admissible displacement functions to formulate the displacement field, and the elastic constraints are simulated by constrained springs whose stiffness values are determined using model updating technique. The developed model has been validated by the comparison between the natural frequencies obtained by analytical calculation and by experiment respectively. Finally, the influences of hard-coating parameters, including thickness, Young's modulus and loss factor, on the vibration characteristics of the cylindrical shell are studied.
