The effects of material damping on flutter of stressed rectangular panels are studied within the context of linear thermoelasticity theory. The closed-form expression for the thermoelastic (material) damping coefficient is obtained as a function of frequency, panel temperature and dimensions, and material properties. The solution of the stability boundary value problem is obtained by use of a generalized Galerkin method in the cross stream direction which reduces the governing partial differential equations to a system of ordinary differential equations in the streamwise direction. These equations are then solved exactly. Numerical results are given for the thermoelastic damping coefficients and for the flutter speeds of partially and fully clamped panels subjected to midplane stress.
A FORTRAN 4 digital computer program is presented for the initial postbuckling and imperfection sensitivity analysis of bifurcation buckling modes for ring-stiffened orthotropic multilayered shells of revolution. The boundary value problem for the second-order contribution to the buckled state was solved by the forward integration technique using the Runge-Kutta method. The effects of nonlinear prebuckling states and live pressure loadings are included.
