The formulations are based on the classical shell theory taking into account geometrical nonlinearity, initial geometrical imperfection, temperature-dependent properties and the Lekhnitsky smeared stiffeners technique with Pasternak type elastic foundation. By applying Galerkin method and using stress function, explicit relations of thermal load-deflection curves for simply supported curved eccentrically stiffened FGM shells are determined. Effects of material and geometrical properties, temperature, elastic foundation and eccentrically stiffeners on the dynamic response and vibration of the imperfect eccentrically stiffened P-FGM double curved shallow shells in thermal environments are analyzed and discussed. The numerical results in this paper are compared with results reported in other publications.
