Nonlinear oscillations of a three-layer and multi-layer plates and shells during periodic impacts (survey)

Abstract

The analysis of the current state of research on the free and forced nonlinear oscillations of three-layer and multilayer thin elastic plates and shells under periodic influences was made. There were discussed some various approaches to the solution of nonlinear dynamic equations of laminated plates and shells, which are applied to this class of problems. There was also analyzed the impact of physical, mechanical, geometrical parameters, the packet structure of layers, forms of plates, boundary conditions on the nature of non-linear oscillations and form of amplitude-frequency characteristics of laminated plates and shells, as well as the available experimental results.
