Özet

The main objective of this paper is to evaluate the dynamic behaviour of sandwich toroidal shells composed of a core with negative Poisson ratio (auxetic honeycomb material) and nanocomposite enriched coating layers under impulsive/periodic pressures considering the geometrical nonlinearity. The set of nonlinear equilibrium equations based on the first-order shear deformation theory are and the resultant nonlinear differential motion equations are approximately solved by the Galerkin method and 4th-order Runge–Kutta solution, respectively. The achieved responses show that the amplitude of outward deformations is intensively increased when the proposed sandwich shells are subjected to rectangular periodic and impulsive loadings which shows the destructive effects of this type dynamic loading. The performed parametric studies shows that these destructive effects can be controlled by changing the geometrical properties of the honeycomb cells and the volume fractions of the nanocomposites in the coating layers. It is notable that in the previous studies the nonlinear dynamic response of toroidal shells subjected to various periodic and impulsive pressures was not investigated. However, in the present work, the mentioned dynamic responses were achieved and investigated without spending time-consuming computational. In fact, the novelty of this work is to develop such a robust and efficient tool.
