✦ Synopsis

Considering rotary, in-plane inertias, and fluid velocity potential, the dynamic characteristics of fluidconveying functionally graded materials (FGMs) cylindrical shells subjected to dynamic mechanical and thermal loads are investigated, where material properties of FGM shells are considered as graded distribution across the shell thickness according to a power-law, and dynamic thermal loads applied on the shell is considered as non-linear distribution across the thickness of the shell. The linear response characteristics of fluid-conveying FGM cylindrical shells are obtained by using modal superposition and Newmark's direct time integration method.
