Effect of the stiffness of ribs on the vibrations and stability of open cylindrical shells

  • Published:
International Applied Mechanics Aims and scope

The effect of the stiffness of ribs on the minimum natural frequencies and critical stresses of axially compressed open cylindrical shells reinforced with a quasiregular set of longitudinal ribs is analyzed by way of numerical examples. It is shown that the earlier discovered phenomenon of abrupt decrease in the minimum frequencies is independent of rib stiffness for certain modes and a small number of ribs
