In this study, the instability of spinning cylindrical shells partially filled with viscous liquid is investigated. Based on the Navier-Stokes equations for the incompressible flow, a 2D model is developed for liquid motion at each section of the cylinder. The governing equations of the cylinder vibrations are obtained based on the first-order shear deformable shell theory. The nonpenetration and no-slip boundary conditions of the flow on the wetted surface of the cylinder relate the liquid motion to the shell vibrations. Also the liquid pressure exerted on the cylinder wall combines the vibrations of the rotary cylinder to the liquid motion. By using the obtained coupled liquid-structure... 

This paper deals with the determination of free vibration characteristics and instability conditions of flexible spinning cylinders partially filled with fluid. Using the linearized Navier-Stokes equations for the incompressible, inviscid flow, a 2D model is developed for fluid motion at each section of the cylinder. The forces exerted on the cylinder wall as a result of the fluid motion are calculated as functions of lateral acceleration of the cylinder axis in the Laplace domain. Applying the Hamilton principle, the governing equations of flexural motion of the cylinder are derived and then combined with the equations describing the fluid forces to obtain the coupled field equations of the...
