Abstract
This paper deals with the specific influence of three different fraction laws for vibrational analysis of rotating cylindrical shells. The rotating cylindrical shells are stabilized by ring-stiffeners to increase the stiffness and strength. Isotopic materials are the constituents of these rings. The frequencies are investigated versus circumferential wave number, length- and height-to- radius ratios using three volume fraction laws. Moreover, the effect of rotation speed is investigated. It is examined that the backward and forward frequencies increase and decrease on increasing the ratio of height- and length-to-radius ratio. When the position of ring supports increases, the backward and forward frequency first increases and obtains its maximum value at the shell mid length position and then decreases and get a bell shape with clamped-clamped and clamped-free conditions. The assessment of present model is judged with the comparison of non-rotating and rotating results with former exploration.
