A study of chaotic motion in elastic cylindrical shells. (English) Zbl 0942.74036

Summary: We study the chaotic motion of an elastic cylindrical shell, the dynamic equation of which contains square and cubic nonlinear terms. By means of the Galerkin approach and the Melnikov method, the critical condition for chaotic motion has been obtained. Two demonstrative examples are discussed through Poincaré mapping, phase portrait and time history.
