Abstract
Geometrically nonlinear forced vibrations of a cantilever shallow shell are analyzed. A finite degree of freedom nonlinear dynamical system is derived using the assumed mode method. The Neimark–Sacker bifurcations are detected close to the first principal resonance. The quasi-periodic vibrations, which originate from these bifurcations, are investigated numerically. These vibrations are transformed into chaotic motions as a result of the forcing frequency variation. Sub-harmonic vibrations with large amplitudes are analyzed in a wide forcing frequency range close to the second principal resonance.
