Abstract

This study deals with the dynamic response of transverse shear deformable laminated shells subjected to random excitation. The analysis encompasses the following problems: (1) the dynamic response of circular cylindrical shells of finite length excited by an axisymmetric uniform ring loading, stationary in time, and (2) the response of spherical and cylindrical panels subjected to stationary random loadings with uniform spatial distribution. The associated equations governing the structural theory of shells are derived upon discarding the classical Love-Kirchhoff (L-K) assumptions. In this sense, the theory is formulated in the framework of the first-order transverse shear deformation theory (FSDT).
