Material properties are graded in the thickness direction according to a sigmoid power law distribution (S-FGM) in terms of the volume fractions of constituents with metal–ceramic–metal layers. The S-FGM shells are subjected to mechanical and damping loads. Numerical results for dynamic response of the shells are obtained by Runge–Kutta method. The results show the influences of geometrical parameters, the volume fractions of metal–ceramic–metal layers, imperfections, the elastic foundations, eccentrically stiffeners, pre-loaded axial compression and damping loads on the nonlinear dynamic response and nonlinear vibration of functionally graded cylindrical shells. The proposed results are validated by comparing with other results reported in the literature. date: 2015-01 date_type: published official_url: doi:10.1016/j.ast.2014.11.005 full_text_status: none publication: Aerospace Science and Technology Volume 40, January 2015, Pages 115–127 volume: 40 pagerange: 115-127 refereed: TRUE citation: Nguyen, Dinh Duc and Pham, Toan Thang (2015) Nonlinear dynamic response and vibration of shear deformable imperfect eccentrically stiffened S-FGM circular cylindrical shells surrounded on elastic foundations.
