Abstract

Assessment of the geometrically nonlinear forced vibration of the doubly-curved laminated composite shallow shell panels enriched by nanocomposites have been carried out in this paper. The proposed shells incorporate some layers composed of fibres and nanocomposite-reinforced resin, resting on the two types Winkler and Pasternak elastic foundations. Since the thin and moderately thick shells are investigated, the first-order transverse shear deformation theory (FSDT) is employed for extending the governing equations. The achieved system of differential equations incorporating the geometrical nonlinear terms is solved by applying the principles of the Galerkin method. This approach yields a closed-form semi-analytical solution for motion differential equation of the shell which is solved by fourth-order Runge-Kutta method. The consequence of the present approach is a strong and robust tool without any time-consuming computational process. The applicability of the proposed method is verified by considering some benchmark problems from the literature and comparing the relevant results with those are achieved in this study. Finally, by solving several examples, the effects of various factors on the forced-vibration of proposed shells are evaluated.
