Abstract

This study investigates free and damped vibration behaviours of porous functionally graded shells supported by Winkler-Pasternak foundation, considering different geometries. Utilizing a higher-order shear deformation theory, the displacement field is determined. The equations of motion are formulated using Hamilton's principle, and the solutions are obtained Navier's method employing double Fourier series. Parametric studies regarding the effects of porosity, material distribution, elastic foundation, shell geometry and damping are carried out. Results are given in tabular and graphical form for the free and forced vibration analyses, respectively.
