Abstract
In a previous paper [1] the finite strip method was applied to the prediction of the natural frequencies of vibration of longitudinally invariant, rigidly connected assemblies of circularly curved and flat strips having diaphragm end supports. This work is extended here to include the presence of an initial membrane stress field. An individual curved strip may be subjected to a biaxial direct stress field comprising a uniform stress acting in the circumferential direction and a non-uniform stress acting in the longitudinal direction. The presence of the membrane stress field is accommodated in the analysis by the inclusion of an initial stress or geometric stiffness matrix. A further extension included here is a facility to delete in-surface inertia terms. Results are presented for the application of the strip method in predicting the frequencies of vibration of a circular cylinder subjected to a complicated membrane stress system.
