Item Buckling and Free Vibration Characteristics of a Uniformly Heated Isotropic Cylindrical Panel(Elsevier Ltd, 2016) Bhagat, V.; Jeyaraj, P.; Murigendrappa, S.M.In this paper buckling and free vibration characteristics of an isotropic cylindrical panel subjected to uniform temperature rise has been investigated using finite element method. The procedure involves the determination of critical buckling temperature, which is followed by modal analysis considering pre-stress due to the thermal field in the cylindrical panel. Detailed studies are carried out to analyze the influence of curvature ratio, thickness ratio and aspect ratio on the critical buckling temperature and free vibration behavior of an isotropic cylindrical panel. It has been found that as the curvature ratio and the thickness ratio increases the thermal buckling strength of the cylindrical panel decreases. It has also been found that free vibration frequencies reduce with an increase in temperature and the reduction is more significant for the lowest frequency mode. It is observed that free vibration mode shapes at ambient temperature changes with an increase in temperature. © 2016 The Authors.Item Buckling and Free Vibration Behavior of a Temperature Dependent FG-CNTRC Cylindrical Panel under Thermal Load(Elsevier Ltd, 2018) Bhagat, V.; Jeyaraj, P.; Murigendrappa, S.M.Present study deals with the buckling and free vibration behavior of functionally graded carbon-nanotubes reinforced composite (FG-CNTRC) cylindrical panel exposed to uniform thermal load. Stresses setup due to thermal load and temperature dependent properties influences the buckling and free vibration behavior of the heated structures. Approach employed in the present study consists of static analysis to compute thermal stresses, eigen-value buckling analysis to compute critical buckling temperature and finally modal analysis, taking thermal stresses into account. Influence of different CNTs grading pattern, CNTs volume fraction, geometric parameters, boundary constraints and temperature dependent properties on the buckling strength are investigated. It is observed that hybrid CNTs distribution pattern gives comparatively higher buckling strength and free vibration frequencies. Investigation on free vibration characteristics of the FG-CNTRC panel at elevated temperature signifies that the decline in free vibration frequencies is very drastic at a temperature close to buckling temperature along with temperature dependent properties. c 2017 Elsevier Ltd.
