Abstract

We suggest an analytic-numerical approach to solving the problem of vibrations of multilayer cylinders under impulse loading. The behavior of the cylinder is described by dynamic equations of three-dimensional elasticity theory. The number of layers in the pack and the thickness and mechanical characteristics of each layer are selected arbitrarily. The possibilities of the approach are proposed, and the validity of results obtained is demonstrated by numerical examples.
