Zusammenfassung:This study presents aero-thermo-elastic Instability of two-dimensional Non-linear Curved Panels. Aero-thermo-elasticity plays an important role in the design and optimization of supersonic aircrafts. Furthermore, the transient and nonlinear effects of the thermal and aerodynamic environment encompassing a curved surface cannot be ignored. Accordingly, a homogenous curved plate with a high length-to-width ratio and simply-supported boundary conditions is assumed. The effect of large deflection is included in the equations through von Kármán non-linear strain–displacement relations. The thermal load is assumed to be a steady-state temperature non-uniform distribution. Structural properties such as modulus of elasticity and thermal expansion coefficient are assumed to be temperature-dependent. The novelty is incorporating first- and third-order piston theory for the non-linear curved panel flutter analysis under the effects of in-plane and thermal loads. Hamilton’s principle is used and partial differential equations are derived. The semi-analytical weighted residual method for the nonlinear curved panel is utilized. The fourth- and fifth-order Runge–Kutta iterative method are deployed to obtain the non-linear aero-thermo-mechanical deflections. Non-linear frequency analysis of cambered panel with the combined effects of aerodynamics, thermal and in-plane loads is investigated for the first time. The increase in panel curvature leads to a complicated behavior in the non-linear structural frequency variations. With increasing in-plane compressive load, complicated oscillating behavior is observed. More critical instability boundary for cambered panel is detected through the use of third-order piston theory. In addition, with an increase in panel curvature from 0 to 3, the panel displacement increases and for higher camber ratio, it decreases.
