Unlike those discussed in previous studies, the composite considered in this study has three layers: FG-CNTRC layer – homogeneous core – FG-CNTRC layer. Several examples are considered to analyse the behaviour of this sandwich-structured composite. The classical shell theory (CST) is used to derive theoretical formulation delineating nonlinear dynamic response of FG-CNTRC sandwich annular spherical shells. The numerical results explain the effect of material, geometrical parameters, and elastic foundations on the nonlinear dynamic response of the annular spherical shell. date: 2019 type: Article type: PeerReviewed format: text/xml language: en identifier: https://eprints.uet.vnu.edu.vn/eprints/id/eprint/3650/1/4360 identifier: Nguyen, Dinh Duc and Vu, Thi Thuy Anh and Vu, Thi Huong and Vu, Dinh Quang and Pham, Dinh Nguyen (2019) Nonlinear Dynamic Response of Nano-composite Sandwich Annular Spherical Shells.
