چکیده مقاله

This paper presents a parametric study on aeroelastic stability analysis of multi-layered functionally graded carbon nanotubes reinforced composite (FG-CNTRC) cylindrical panels subjected to a yawed supersonic flow. The panel is considered to be composed of different layers reinforced by carbon nanotubes arranged in different directions with various patterns and different volume fractions. Reddy’s third-order shear deformation theory (TSDT) is employed to model the structure and external pressure is estimated based on the linear supersonic piston theory. The set of governing equations and boundary conditions are derived using Hamilton’s principle and are solved numerically using generalized differential quadrature method (GDQM). Convergence and accuracy of the presented solution are confirmed and effect of volume fraction, distributions and orientation of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), yaw angle and geometrical parameters of the panel on the flutter boundaries are investigated. Results of this paper can be considered as a useful tool in design and analysis of supersonic airplanes and missiles.
