By integrating first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT) with linear potential flow theory, the energy functional formulations for the structure considered are meticulously derived.

Firstly, the vibration modals and mean quadratic velocity of X-frame sandwich plates with or without foam-filled were measured in vacuum as well as underwater through experiments. Then, numerical simulation analysis was carried out, and the results by numerical simulation analysis were highly consistent with the experimental results.

The low-density foam played a role in peak shaving. Improving the relative density of the core increased the natural frequencies significantly and reduced the overall mean quadratic velocity of the plates.

Results show that near-field excitation leads to significantly greater nacelle displacement, acceleration, amplification factors along height, and base moment than far-field excitation, with clear response variation as peak ground acceleration (PGA) increases. Time-frequency analysis reveals that near-field motions are characterized by impulsive energy input over medium-to-high frequencies, while far-field excitations deliver relatively low-frequency, long-duration energy. Wind load contributes to seismic response by amplifying peak displacements and may increase nacelle fatigue risk. Cumulative displacement of wind turbines is strongly influenced by wind load. When the turbine is operating, the combined effect of wind and seismic loading leads to much greater overall displacement over time compared to when the turbine is shut down.

First, the paper introduces a simplified analytical method to deduce the governing equations that retain the essential features of shear deformation and rotary inertia of the section.

For TTL plates, only a single function is required to satisfy a fourth-order PDE and effective shear force is introduced to include the role of the twisting moment. For plates with two opposite sides guided, the free vibration of TTL plates is exactly solved by a Lévy-type solution. The exact characteristic equations are determined for ten combination cases of the other sides, including clamped, hinged, guided, and free edges. Accurate natural frequency parameters and the corresponding mode shapes are given. The effects of aspect ratio, thickness-to-side-length ratio, and boundary conditions on the vibration characteristics of plates are discussed in detail.

Moreover, this study investigates two variations of PFG: one featuring an even porosity distribution (EPD) and the other exhibiting an uneven porosity distribution (UEPD). Lekhnitskii’s smeared stiffener approach is utilized to model the stiffeners. The nonlinear governing equations (NGEs) are formulated based on Donnel shell theory (DST) incorporating von Kármán geometric nonlinearity. Then, these equations are discretized via Galerkin’s method, and a three-term approximate solution for the deflection is established. An approach utilizing the P-T method is developed for analyzing the ND behavior of PFG-CSs reinforced with oblique stiffeners in the presence of fluid flow, providing a continuous semi-analytical solution across the full-time domain with highly accurate numerical results. This method combines a piecewise-constant argument with Taylor series expansions, hence its designation as the P-T method. The study advances the state of the art by integrating oblique stiffener effects, porosity variations, and realistic fluid–structure interaction in the analysis of PFG-CSs, thereby capturing the influence of both material distribution and internal fluid properties on their ND responses. The results demonstrate that stiffener angles, porosity distribution, and fluid characteristics significantly affect the ND behavior, providing valuable insights and design guidelines for marine risers, heavy‑oil pipelines, and aerospace propellant tanks where fluid–structure interactions are critical to structural safety and performance.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":49435,"journal":{"name":"Thin-Walled Structures","volume":"218 ","pages":"Article 113925"},"PeriodicalIF":6.6,"publicationDate":"2025-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145049774","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
