This study investigates the nonlinear free vibrations of porous functionally graded annular spherical shell segments and highlights the factors affecting the vibration characteristics.
This article investigates nonlinear free vibrations of porous functionally graded (FG) annular spherical shell segments surrounded by elastic medium and reinforced by circumferential stiffeners. Porous FG material contains distributed even and un-even porosities and is modeled based on refined power-law function. The governing equations of stiffened porous annular spherical shell segments have been derived according to thin shell theory with the geometrical nonlinear in von Karman-Donnell sense and the smeared stiffeners method. An analytical trend has been provided for solving the nonlinear governing equations. Obtained results demonstrate the significance of porosity distribution, geometric nonlinearity, foundation factors, stiffeners and curvature radius on vibration characteristics of porous FG annular spherical shell segments.
