Abstract

An analysis of vibration and stability of cylindrical shell panels subjected to follower forces, by utilizing an extended form of the principle of virtual work, is presented. Two illustrative examples of a cantilevered cylindrical shell panel under different kinds of follower loading are solved. The effect on the critical loading parameter, by varying the radius of curvature from deep to shallow cylindrical shell panel, is discussed.
