Abstract
Considering that different boundary conditions can have an important impact on structural vibration characteristics.
In this paper, the nonlinear forced vibration behavior of functionally graded material (FGM) doubly curved shells with initial
geometric imperfections under different boundary conditions is studied. Considering initial geometric imperfections and von
Karman geometric nonlinearity, the nonlinear governing equations of FGM doubly curved shells are derived using Reissner's
first order shear deformation (FOSD) theory. Three different boundary conditions of four edges simply supported (SSSS), four
edges clamped (CCCC), clamped-clamped-simply-simply (CCSS) were studied, and a system of nonlinear ordinary differential
equations was obtained with the help of Galerkin principle. The nonlinear forced vibration response of the FGM doubly curved
shell is obtained by using the modified Lindstedt Poincare (MLP) method. The accuracy of this method was verified by
comparing it with published literature. Finally, the effects of curvature ratio, power law index, void coefficient, prestress, and
initial geometric imperfections on the resonance of FGM doubly curved shells under different boundary conditions are fully
discussed. The relevant research results can provide certain guidance for the design and application of doubly curved shell.
