What is A Three-dimensional Analysis Of The Spheroidal And Toroidal Elastic Vibrations Of Thick-walled Spherical Bodies Of Revolution about?

This paper addresses the spheroidal (i.e. coupled bending-stretching) and toroidal (i.e. torsional or equivoluminal) elastic vibrations of thick-walled, spherical bodies of revolution by means of the threedimensional theory of elasticity in curvilinear (spherical) co-ordinates. Stationary values of the dynamical energies of the spherical body are obtained by the Ritz method using a complete set of algebraictrigonometric polynomials to approximate the radial, meridional, and circumferential displacements. Extensive convergence studies of non-dimensional frequencies are presented for the spheroidal and toroidal modes of thin-walled spherical bodies of revolution. Results include all possible 3-D modes, i.e. radial stretching, combined bending-stretching, pure torsion, and shear deformable flexure through the wall thickness (including thickness-shear, thickness-stretch, and thickness-twist). It is shown that the assumed displacement polynomials yield a strictly upper-bound convergence to exact solutions of the title problem, as a sufficient number of terms is retained. Since the effects of transverse shear and rotary inertia are inherent to the present 3-D formulation, an examination
