Most of the experimental, theoretical, and numerical studies on the stability of functionally graded composites are deterministic, while there are full of complex interactions of variables with an inherently probabilistic nature, this paper presents a non-intrusive framework to investigate the stochastic nonlinear buckling behaviors of porous functionally graded cylindrical shells exposed to inevitable source-uncertainties. Euler-Lagrange equations are theoretically derived based on the three variable refined shear deformation theory. Closed-form solutions for the shell buckling loads are achieved by solving the deterministic eigenvalue problems. The analytical results are verified with numerical results obtained from finite element analyses that are conducted in the commercial software ABAQUS. The non-intrusive framework is completed by integrating the Monte Carlo simulation with the verified closed-form solutions. The convergence studies are performed to determine the effective pseudorandom draws of the simulation. The accuracy and efficiency of the framework are verified with statistical results that are obtained from the first and second-order perturbation techniques. Eleven cases of individual and compound uncertainties are investigated. Sensitivity analyses are conducted to figure out the five cases that have profound perturbative effects on the shell buckling loads. Complete probability distributions of the first three critical buckling loads are completely presented for each profound uncertainty case. The effects of the shell thickness, volume fraction index, and stochasticity degree on the shell buckling load under compound uncertainties are studied. There is a high probability that the shell has non-unique buckling modes in stochastic environments, which should be known for reliable analysis and design of engineering structures.

Longitudinal shell member that arranged block unit on 3D-curved surface is performed manual working by designer considering spacing of division characteristic, location and twisting at geometrical 3-dimensional form. Shell expansion drawing that drawn by initial design and shell landing work performed by hull production design have overlap of design work in terms of arrangement of shell longitudinal member. In this study, eliminate design overlap on shell member arrangement that is one of ship longitudinal member. Develop shell member optimization and auto arrangement system.

Three kinds of mangrove oysters, species of high commercial value in tropical regions, were collected in Cocineta Bay, Venezuella in 1976, at the mouth of Hoffman River, Liberia in 1978 and at the West Coast of Benzina, Indonesia in 1984. Crassostrea rhizophorae from Venezuella showed the most round shell form and greatest shell capacity. In addition, the fatness condition of $9.63\%$ topped the ether two species. Crassostrea tulipa inhabiting Liberia had the most elongated shell form. Although shell capacity of this species was almost similar to Crassostrea rhizophorae, it took up intermediate position in fatness condition with $8.15\%$. Crassostrea beleheri from Indonesia. just as rounded as C, rhizophorae, showed the biggest values in total weight and shell weight but the least fatness with $6.62\%$.

In this study, the bifurcation analysis of functionally graded material is done using exponential volume fraction law. Shell theory of Love is used for vibration of shell. The Galerkin's method is applied for the formation of three equations in eigen value form. This eigen form gives the frequencies using the computer software MATLAB. The variations of natural frequencies (Hz) for Type-I and Type-II functionally graded cylindrical shells are plotted for exponential volume fraction law. The behavior of exponent of volume fraction law is seen for three different values. Moreover, the frequency variations of Type-I and -II clamped simply supported FG cylindrical shell with different positions of ring supports against the circumferential wave number are investigated. The procedure adopted here enables to study vibration for any boundary condition but for brevity, numerical results for a cylindrical shell with clamped simply supported edge condition are obtained and their analysis with regard various physical parameters is done.

In the present study, we propose the framework which directly links shell finite element to the surface geometric modeling. For the development of a robust shell element, partial mixed variational functional is provided. The NURBS is used to generate the general free form of parameterized shell surfaces. Employment of NURBS makes shell finite element handle the arbitrary geometry of the smooth shell surfaces. The proposed shell finite element model linked with NURBS surface representation provides efficiency for design and analysis and can be directly extended to surface shape optimization problems in future work.

Theoretical study of vibration distinctiveness of rotating cylindrical are examined for three volume fraction laws viz.: polynomial, exponential and trigonometric. These laws control functionally graded material composition in the shell radius direction. Functionally graded materials are controlled from two or more materials. In practice functionally graded material comprised of two constituent materials is used to form a cylindrical shell. For the current shell problem stainless steel and nickel are used for the shell structure. A functionally graded cylindrical shell is sanctioned into two types by interchanging order of constituent materials from inner and outer side for Type I and Type II cylindrical shell arrangement. Fabric composition of a functionally graded material in a shell thickness direction is controlled by volume fraction law. Variation of power law exponent brings change in frequency values. Influence of this physical change is investigated to evade future complications. This procedure is capable to cater any boundary condition by changing the axial wave number. But for simplicity, numerical results have been evaluated for clamped- simply supported rotating cylindrical shells. It has been observed from these results that shell frequency is bifurcated into two parts: one is related to the backward wave and other with forward wave. It is concluded that the value of backward frequency is some bit higher than that forward frequency. Influence of volume fraction laws have been examined on shell frequencies. Backward and forward frequency curves for a volume fraction law are upper than those related to two other volume fraction laws. The results generated furnish the evidence regarding applicability of present shell model and also verified by earlier published literature.

Grains in the BaTiO₃, which is used for a dielectric layer in MLCC(Multi-Layer Ceramic Capacitor) are necessary to form core/shell structure for a stable TCC(Temperature Coefficient of Capacitance) behavior. The shell property has been deduced from the whole TCC behavior of core/shell structure due to its tiny size, ~ few ㎛. This study demonstrates the individual TCC behavior of the shell phase measured by micro-contact measurement in a temperature range between 35 and 135℃. Pt electrode pairs deposited on an enlarged core/shell structure in a diffusion couple sample made the measurement possible. As a result, the DPT (Diffusion Phase Transition) behavior of the shell phase was revealed as a different TCC behavior from that of the core: a broad peak with T_m at 65℃. This would be also useful experimental data for a modelling that depicts dielectric-temperature behavior of core/shell structure.

Research about spherical shells been applying most usually is achieved by many investigators already and generalized equation has been derived. But, existent research is limited in case that spherical shell's roof rigidity is isotropy or orthotropy, and research that consider periodicity of rigidity-distribution that can happen by doing spherical shell's roof system by lattice system is not gone entirely. The purpose of this paper is applying Galerkin method to spherical shell that model periodicity of roof rigidity distribution that appear by roof lattice form of large space structure and develop structural analysis program that formularize. Rigidity-model of this research selects that of spherical shell which has 2-way grid. In this paper, buckling-strength and deformation distribution of isotopic spherical shell and 2-way grid spherical shell obtained by developed program could confirm the reliability by comparison with result of existent research.

In this paper, a geometrically nonlinear meshfree analysis of 3D various forms of shell structures using the double director shell theory with finite rotations is proposed. This theory is introduced in the present method to remove the shear correction factor and to improve the accuracy of transverse shear stresses with the consideration of rotational degrees of freedom.The present meshfree method is based on the radial point interpolation method (RPIM) which is employed for the construction of shape functions for a set of nodes distributed in a problem domain. Discrete system of geometrically nonlinear equilibrium equations solved with the Newton-Raphson method is obtained by incorporating these interpolations into the weak form. The accuracy of the proposed method is examined by comparing the present results with the accurate ones available in the literature and good agreements are found.
