Abstract

An asymptotic process for evaluating the frequencies of free axisymmetric vibrations of transversely isotropic hollow cylinders is proposed. This process is developed in detail for a cylinder with hinge-supported ends and free lateral surfaces. The approaches which make it possible to construct algorithms for identifying their natural frequencies within the given interval are tested on model problems. The results from the Kirchhoff-Love and Ambartsumyan theories are compared with those from the 3D elasticity theory. In the first term of an asymptotic expansion, two frequencies coinciding with those obtained using the applied shell theory are found and a countable set of frequencies absent in this theory is determined.
