摘要

The main purpose of this paper is to provide a semi analytical method to analyze the free vibration of spherical-cylindrical-spherical shell subject to arbitrary boundary conditions. The formulations are established based on energy method and Flugge thin shell theory. The displacement functions are expressed by unified Jacobi polynomials and Fourier series. The arbitrary boundary conditions are simulated by penalty method about spring stiffness. The final solutions of spherical-cylindrical-spherical shell are obtained by Rayleigh-Ritz method. To sufficient illustrate the effectiveness of proposed method, some numerical example about spring stiffness, Jacobi parameters etc. are carried out. In addition, to verify the accuracy of this method, the results are compared with those obtained by FEM, experiment and published literature. The results show that the proposed method has ability to solve the free vibration behaviors of spherical-cylindrical-spherical shell.
