Solving nonlinear stability problem of imperfect functionally graded circular cylindrical shells under axial compression by Galerkin's method

This paper presents an analytical approach to analyze the nonlinear stability of thin closed circular cylindrical shells under axial compression with material properties varying smoothly along the thickness in the power and exponential distribution laws. Equilibrium and compatibility equations are...
