Three-dimensional solution for a hybrid cylindrical shell under axisymmetric thermoelectric load
An exact axisymmetric piezothermoelastic solution is presented for a simply-supported hybrid cylindrical shell made of cross-ply composite laminate and piezoelectric layers. Numerical results for hybrid shells are presented for sinusoidal and central band thermal and electrical loads. The effects of the loading, the radius-to-thickness ratio, the span-to-radius ratio and the number of layers of the substrate on the response are investigated.
