    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.

    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.

    Determination of apparent coupling factors for adhesive bonded acrylic plates using SEAL approach
    (American Institute of Physics Inc. subs@aip.org, 2018) Pankaj, A.C.; Shivaprasad, M.V.; Murigendrappa, S.M.
    Apparent coupling loss factors (CLF) and velocity responses has been computed for two lap joined adhesive bonded plates using finite element and experimental statistical energy analysis like approach. A finite element model of the plates has been created using ANSYS software. The statistical energy parameters have been computed using the velocity responses obtained from a harmonic forced excitation analysis. Experiments have been carried out for two different cases of adhesive bonded joints and the results have been compared with the apparent coupling factors and velocity responses obtained from finite element analysis. The results obtained from the studies signify the importance of modeling of adhesive bonded joints in computation of the apparent coupling factors and its further use in computation of energies and velocity responses using statistical energy analysis like approach. © 2018 Author(s).
