Abstract
Free vibration of anti-symmetric angle-ply composite laminated conical shells is studied including shear deformation using spline function approximation. The equilibrium equations are formulated in terms of displacement and rotational functions. These functions are approximated using Bickley-type splines to obtain the generalised eigenvalue problem with suitable boundary conditions. Parametric studies are made to analyse the effects of circumferential node number, length ratio and cone angle on the frequency parameter for different number of layers and materials with different ply orientations under two types of boundary conditions.
