Description
There are numerous engineering applications for high-speed rotating structures which rotate about their symmetric axes. For example, free-flight
sub-munition projectiles rotate at high speeds in order to achieve an aerodynamically-stable flight.
This is the first book of its
kind to provide a comprehensive and systematic description of rotating shell dynamics. It not only provides the basic derivation of the
dynamic governing equations for rotating shells, but documents benchmark results for free vibration, critical speed and parametric resonance.
It is written in a simple and clear manner making it accessible both the expert and graduate student.
