ABSTRACT
Weak formulations of mixed state equations of closed laminated cylindrical shells are presented in the Hamilton System. The Hamilton canonical equation of closed cylindrical shell is established. By means of applying the transfer matrix method and taking the advantage of Hamiltonian matrix in the calculation, a unified approach and three-dimensional thermoelastic solutions are obtained for the buckling analysis of closed thick laminated cylindrical shells. All equations of elasticity can be satisfied and all elastic constants can be taken into account. Numerical results are given to compare with those of FEM calculated using SAP5. The principle and method suggested here have clear physical concepts. The equations and boundary conditions proposed in this paper are weakened. The solutions and results given here may serve as a benchmark for other numerical procedures.
