Abstract
The present study, for the first time, investigates the vibration and flutter analyses of a doubly curved panel composed of functionally graded porous material contained by piezoelectric layers in supersonic flow. In this regard, the first-order piston theory for aerodynamic loading and Reddy’s third-order shear deformation theory for doubly curved panel analysis is used. The governing equations of motion are obtained using Hamilton’s principle and Maxwell’s equation. The Galerkin method is used to discretize the equations of motion. Three types of piezoelectric layers are used, in both open-circuit and closed-circuit electrical boundary conditions. The FG porous material with three types of porosity structure is investigated, including uniform distribution, X-shaped distribution, and V-shaped distribution. Also, the effect of the power of the FG porous material and the porosity coefficient on the frequencies and the flutter boundaries of spherical, cylindrical, doubly curved shell with \(R_{y} = - R_{x}\) and plate structures are investigated. The comparison of the spherical panel, doubly curved panel, cylindrical panel, and plate shows that the spherical panel has the highest and the plate has the lowest stability regions. Also, as the radius to length of the panel increases, the critical flutter aerodynamic pressure increases and the flutter frequency decreases. Furthermore, the effects of piezoelectricity, electrical and mechanical boundary conditions, geometric parameters, and the radii of curvatures on the flutter boundaries and flutter frequencies of FG porous doubly curved panels are investigated in detail.

1 Introduction
Aeroelastic instability can occur in both static and dynamic cases. One of the phenomena of dynamic instability discussed here is called flutter. Flutter is a type of dynamic instability of flying objects that results from the interaction of elastic, inertial, and aerodynamic forces. This phenomenon is a type of unstable vibrations of self-stimulation in which the structure receives its required energy from airflow and usually leads to accidental failure of the structure. The Flutter occurs when the aerodynamic forces of two vibration modes combine to give rise to this phenomenon. The vibration and instability characteristics of structures in supersonic flow have been analyzed in numerous studies. Krumhaar [1] studied the use of linear piston theory for cylindrical shells.

Piezoelectric materials are the best choice for use in intelligent mechanical structures in the future due to their coupling mechanical and electrical properties. This is because there is a coupling between the mechanical and electrical properties of the piezoelectric material. In addition, lightweight and ductility are also special properties of these materials. Many researchers have studied the use of these materials in structures under fluid flow. Crawley and Luis [52] investigated the use of piezoelectric materials in intelligent structures. Zhou et al.

To the best of the author’s knowledge, the piezoelectricity effects on the flutter analysis of the doubly curved panels have not been studied, yet. In this study, for the first time, the flutter boundaries for a doubly curved panel made of FG porous materials surrounded by piezoelectric layers subjected to supersonic flow have been investigated. The doubly curved shell analysis has the feature that by changing the radius of curvature, analyses of cylindrical shell, spherical shell, and plate can be performed. In this regard, considering Reddy’s third-order shear deformation theory and first-order piston theory, the governing equations of motion are obtained using Hamilton’s principle and Maxwell’s equation. The Galerkin method is used to discretize the equations of motion. To study the effects of piezoelectricity, three types of piezoelectric layers are investigated in both open-circuit and closed-circuit electrical boundary conditions. Also, the FG porous material with three types of porosity structure including uniform distribution, X-shaped distribution, and V-shaped distribution is investigated. Moreover, the effect of the power of the FG porous material and the porosity coefficient on the frequencies and the flutter boundaries are investigated. Flutter frequencies and flutter boundaries are compared for spherical, cylindrical, doubly curved shell with \(R_{y} = - R_{x}\) and plate. Finally, the effects of mechanical boundary conditions, geometric parameters, and radii of curvatures of the middle surface on the flutter boundaries and flutter frequencies of FG porous doubly curved panels are investigated in detail. The results show that increasing the porosity coefficient reduces the stable range. Furthermore, open circuit electrical conditions cover a larger stable range. Also, using PZ4 piezoelectric layers results in the highest flutter boundaries and frequencies.
2 Mathematical formulation
Figure 1, shows the FG porous doubly curved panel with length \(a\), width \(b\), and total thickness \(H = 2\left( {h + h_{p} } \right)\) where \(2h\) and \(h_{p}\) are thickness of FG porous core and the thickness of each piezoelectric layers, respectively.
The radii of principal curvatures of the middle surface are assumed to be \(R_{x}\) and \(R_{y}\). The Cartesian coordinate system is used. Based on Reddy’s third-order shear deformation theory assumptions for doubly curved panels, consistent the mid-surface displacements (u, v, w), mid-surface rotations \(\left( {\psi_{x} ,\psi_{y} } \right)\), and displacements on a generic point of the panel \(\left( {u_{x} , u_{y} , u_{z} } \right)\) are the association as (Reddy [65]):
where \(t\) stands for the time variable. The constant c is given by \(c = \left( {\frac{4}{{3H^{2} }}} \right)\), which is obtained by satisfying the shear-free boundary conditions on the top and bottom surfaces of the shell as follows: (Reddy. [65], Murakami [70], Sciuva [71]).
The linear strain–displacement relations are obtained as follows:
Here, \(\varepsilon_{xx}\) and \(\varepsilon_{yy}\) are the normal strains; \(\gamma_{xy}\), \(\gamma_{xz}\) and \(\gamma_{yz}\) are the shear strains and the constant \(\beta\) is defined as:
The stress components are expressed as:
These are defined as:
The properties of FG porous layers can be written as:
The forms of porosity distribution for homogeneous, V and X distribution are given in Fig. 1. Equation (7.a) shows the homogeneous distribution of porosity, Eq. (7.b) shows that the porosity distribution is V type, and Eq. (7.c) shows that the porosity distribution is X type. In Eq. (7), \(P\) represents the property of the material, \(e,\) and \(n\) represents the porosity and power law index.
Also, \(P_{b}\) and \(P_{t}\) represent the material properties on the bottom and top surfaces of the panel, respectively. (Ebrahimi and Jafari [66], Wattanasakulpong and Ungbhakorn [68]). In the present research, the materials on the bottom and top surfaces of the shell are ceramics and metal, respectively.
The constitutive equation for the piezoelectric materials is expressed as Eq. (8). (Wang et al. [59]).
In which
In Eq. (9), the electrical displacement and electric field in the piezoelectric layer are denoted by \(D_{{i{ }}} { }\) and \(E_{{i{ }}} \left( {i = x,{ }y,{ }z} \right)\) respectively. Besides, \(c_{11} ,{ }c_{12} ,{ }c_{13} ,{ }c_{33} { }\) and \(c_{55}\) are piezoelectric elastic moduli; \({ }e_{31} ,{ }e_{33} { }\) and \(e_{15}\) are piezoelectric constant and \({\Xi }_{11} ,{ }\) and \({\Xi }_{33}\) are dielectric permittivity.
The electric field can be expressed as Eq. (11). So that \({\Phi }\) is the electric potential.
In Eq. (12), \({\Phi }\) is defined for closed circuit conditions where \(\phi \left( {x, y, t} \right)\) is the electric potential in the mid-surface of piezoelectric layers.
The electric potential function for open circuit condition is expressed as
According to the first-order piston theory, the aerodynamic pressure load is expressed as (Dowell. [67])
where, \(M_{\infty } , U_{\infty }\) and \(\rho_{\infty }\) represent the Mach number, velocity, and density of airflow, respectively. The following simplification for high Mach numbers is utilized: (Dowell [67])
where, \(\lambda\) is the non-dimension aerodynamic pressure.
Based on Hamilton’s principle, the governing equations are obtained as
In Eq. (16), the variational form of strain energy, kinetic energy, and virtual work of an aeroelastic force is demonstrated by \(\delta U,\) \(\delta T\) and \(\delta V,\) respectively. So that, they can be expressed as
The virtual work of aeroelastic forces (\(\delta V\)) can be represented as:
Substituting Eqs. (17), (18) and (19) into Hamilton’s principle, the governing equations of motion are derived as:
In Eq. (20), the forces and moments resultants can be defined as
Substituting Eq. (21) into Eq. (20), the governing equations can be presented as
The constant quantities in Eq. (22), have been defined in “Appendix A”.
The mechanical boundary conditions can be expressed as
Simply supported boundary conditions (S)
Clamped boundary conditions (C)
The variables have to satisfy Maxwell’s equation (Farsangi et al. [69])
Substituting Eq. (3) and (9), into Eq. (25) yields
The electrical boundary conditions at \(x = 0, a , y = \pm \frac{b}{2}\) are:
and
In "Appendix B", the definitions of constant quantities in Eq. (26) have been presented.
3 Solution technique
The Galerkin method is used to discretize the partial differential equations into ordinary equations. The modal expansions are assumed to approximate the aeroelastic stability analysis of a doubly curved panel made of FG porous as follows. (Fung [75])
where \({\varvec{q}}_{u}\), \({\varvec{q}}_{v}\), \({\varvec{q}}_{{\psi_{x} }}\), \({\varvec{q}}_{{\psi_{y} }} , {\varvec{q}}_{w}\) and \({\varvec{q}}_{\phi }\) denote the generalized coordinates; \({{\varvec{\Phi}}}_{u}\), \({{\varvec{\Phi}}}_{v}\), \({{\varvec{\Phi}}}_{{\psi_{x} }}\), \({{\varvec{\Phi}}}_{{\psi_{y} }} ,\) \({{\varvec{\Phi}}}_{w}\) and \({{\varvec{\Phi}}}_{\phi }\) expressed the unknown displacements that satisfy boundary conditions. The unknown displacements \(\left( {u, v, \psi_{x} , \psi_{y} , w,\phi } \right)\) can be represented as
where \(m^{\prime}\) and \(n^{\prime}\) are the truncation of the Galerkin expansion (or the number of modes). It is shown in Table. 2 that Eq. (30) converges in the sixth mode. So,
The unknown displacements that satisfy appropriate simply supported (S) and clamped (C) boundary conditions can be written as
Simply supported (S):
Clamped (C):
where
The Galerkin method is used to discretize form of governing equations which can be given as
In Eq. (34), the overall vector of generalized coordinates is expressed by \({\varvec{q}}\) = \(\left[ {{\varvec{q}}_{u}^{T} \quad {\varvec{q}}_{v}^{T} \quad{\varvec{q}}_{{\psi_{x} }}^{T} \quad{\varvec{q}}_{{\psi_{y} }}^{T}\quad {\varvec{q}}_{w}^{T}\quad {\varvec{q}}_{\phi }^{T} } \right]^{T}\). Furthermore, \({\varvec{K}}_{{\varvec{e}}}\)\(,{\varvec{M}}\) and \({\varvec{C}}\) represent the stiffness, mass and damping matrices, respectively. So, the stiffness matrix can be represented as
The above equation can be rewritten as
where
The state vector \({\varvec{Z}}\left( t \right) = \left\{ {{\varvec{q}}\left( t \right), \dot{\user2{q}}\left( t \right)} \right\}^{T}\) is defined and the Eq. (34) can be rewritten as
where
\({\varvec{I}}\) is the identity matrix.
Finally, substituting the state vector \({\varvec{Z}}\left( t \right) = \overline{\user2{Z}}e^{{\left( {\omega t} \right)}}\) into Eq. (39) yields
From Eq. (41), the eigenvalues \(\omega\)’s are obtained which are generally complex quantities and written as a form, \(\omega = \omega_{R} + i\omega_{I}\). So \(\omega_{I}\) represents the natural frequency of the system and \(\omega_{R}\) is a real part. Dynamic instability occurs when the real part of the eigenvalue sign becomes positive. The aerodynamic pressure associated with this signal change is represented by the critical flutter aerodynamic pressure, \(\lambda_{cr}\). This phenomenon is caused by the merging of two modes of torsion and bending, which is known as the flutter frequency, \(\omega_{cr}\) (Saidi et al. [30]).
4 Numerical results
The dimensionless parameters can be defined as
To evaluate the accuracy of the results obtained for vibration and dynamic instability analyses of FG Porous doubly curved Panels, a comparison has been made with some published results (e.g. [9, 21, 31, 72,73,74]). In Table 1, a comparison between the obtained results and those reported in the references (Matsunaga. [72], Chorfi and Houmat [9]) for FGM curved shells under simply supported boundary conditions has been made. For this validation, the material of the shell is considered according to the mentioned references, \(\left( {{\text{Al}}/{\text{Al}}_{2} {\text{O}}_{3} } \right)\). The thickness of the piezoelectric layers and porosity coefficient is considered \(\left( {h_{p} = 10^{ - 10} {\text{m }}} \right)\) and \(\left( {e = 10^{ - 10} { }} \right)\) in order to obtain a curved shell similar to the mentioned references with a very good approximation. As it can be found from Table 1, good correlation between the results of the present analysis and the results obtained in the previous references can be seen. Also, the flutter aerodynamic pressure \(\lambda_{cr}\) and flutter frequency \({ }\left( {\omega_{cr} } \right)\) for an isotropic square plate have been compared with the results presented by Prakash and Ganapathi [74] and Akbari et al. [73] in Table 2. It should be mentioned that Akbari et al. [73] used the generalized differential quadrature method (GDQM) and Prakash and Ganapathi [74] used the finite element method (FEM) for flutter analysis.
The non-dimensional frequencies \(\overline{\omega } = \omega h\sqrt {\rho_{m} /E_{m} }\) of an SCSC and SSSS FG porous plate for power-law indices, porosity distributions, thickness-side ratios, various aspect ratios and porosity parameters have been compared with the results have been provided by Rezaei et al. [21], in Table 3. In Table 4, the flutter frequency \(\omega_{cr}\) and flutter aerodynamic pressure \(\lambda_{cr}\) of SSSS, CSCS and CCCC porous plate \(\left( {b/a = 1,\; h_{p} /2h = 0.05 \;\;{\text{and}}\; \;2h/a = 0.1} \right)\) have been compared with the results have been presented by Bahaadini et al. [31]. As can be seen from these tables, there is a good agreement between the presented results and the results of previous research. The material properties of FG porous core and piezoelectric layers are prepared in Tables 5 and 6. Then the flutter boundaries for this system are studied using the Galerkin method. Table 7 shows the influence of different types of porosity coefficients and power-law index on the flutter aerodynamic pressure and flutter frequency. The effects of various piezoelectric layers, radii of principal curvatures of the middle surface \(\left( {R_{x} ,R_{y} } \right),\) FG porous distributions, power-law index, porosity coefficient, doubly curved panel thickness, electrical conditions (open condition and closed condition) and mechanical boundary conditions on the flutter boundaries of FG porous doubly curved panel are studied in Figs. 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11. In Figs. 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11. The diagrams show the boundary between dynamic stability and instability. In a stable area, these vibrations are dumped, ie the air acts as a damper, while in an unstable region, the oscillations grow exponentially, leading to a flutter phenomenon.
In these figures, the effects of various piezoelectric layers, radii of principal curvatures of the middle surface \(\left( {R_{x} ,R_{y} } \right),\) FG porous distributions and power-law index on the flutter boundaries of FG porous doubly curved panels are investigated.
In Fig. 2 The influences of open circuit conditions and closed circuit conditions on the flutter boundaries of FG porous doubly curved panels in supersonic flow are performed. It can be seen from Fig. 2 that the open circuit condition predicts a higher stability boundary than the closed circuit condition. The effects of different piezoelectric layers on the flutter boundaries of FG porous doubly curved panels are studied in Fig. 3. From Fig. 3, can be observed that the PZT – 4 predicts the highest flutter boundaries for the FG porous doubly curved panel. In Fig. 4, the effects of mechanical boundary conditions on the flutter boundaries of the system are investigated. It can be seen from Fig. 4 that the clamped boundary conditions predict the highest stability boundaries. It also has the least stability with simply supported boundary conditions. Figure 5 shows the effects of the power-law index on the flutter boundaries. It can be seen from Fig. 5 that increasing the power-law index reduces the stability. Figure 6 shows the influences of porosity coefficient on the flutter boundaries. It can be observed from Fig. 6 that increasing the porosity coefficient reduces the stability. The effects of panel dimensions on the flutter boundaries of FG porous doubly curved panels have been investigated in Figs. 7, 8, 9. Figure 7 indicates the variation of flutter boundaries for different aspect ratios. The results show that increasing the aspect ratios reduces the stability boundary. In Fig. 8, the influences of the core panel’s thickness on the stability of the system are studied. It can be observed from Fig. 8 that increasing the thickness-length ratios decreases the stability. Figure 9, shows the effects of piezoelectric layer thickness on the flutter boundaries. Examination of the results shows that increasing the thickness of the piezoelectric layer increases the stability of the system. The effects of different FG porous materials on the flutter boundaries of FG porous doubly curved panels are studied in Fig. 10. It is clear from Fig. 10 that the use of V distribution raises the flutter boundaries. Figure 11, shows the influences of a different curved panel on the flutter boundaries. A comparison of the curves in Fig. 11 shows that the spherical panel has the highest stability. Figure 10 shows that the stability boundary of the spherical panel is higher than that of the doubly curved panel \(\left( {R_{y} = 2R_{x} } \right)\), cylindrical panel, \(\left( {R_{y} = - R_{x} } \right)\) and plate.
5 Conclusion
In this study, the flutter boundaries for a doubly curved panel made of FG porous materials surrounded by piezoelectric layers subjected to supersonic flow have been investigated. The governing equations of motion are obtained from Hamilton’s principle and Maxwell’s equation. In this regard, first-order piston theory and Reddy’s third-order shear deformation theory are used. The Galerkin method is used to discretize the equations of motion. Based on the present research, the following results have been obtained:
-
1.
A comparison of the spherical panel, doubly curved panel with \({R}_{y}=2{R}_{x}\) and \( {R_{y} = - R_{x} } \), cylindrical panel, and plate shows that the spherical panel has the highest and the plate has the lowest stability regions.
-
2.
As the radius to length of the panel increases, the critical flutter aerodynamic pressure increases and the flutter frequency decreases.
-
3.
The open-circuit electrical boundary condition predicts a higher flutter boundary as well as a higher flutter frequency than the closed-circuit electrical boundary condition. Also, the highest and lowest critical flutter aerodynamic pressure and flutter frequency are related to CCCC and SSSS mechanical boundary conditions, respectively.
-
4.
By examining three piezoelectric materials, the PZT-4 type has the highest flutter boundary and flutter frequency, and the PZT-5A type has the lowest critical flutter aerodynamic pressure and flutter frequency. Also, increasing the ratio of piezoelectric layer thickness to panel thickness increases the critical flutter aerodynamic pressure and flutter frequency.
-
5.
The stability of the system decreases by increasing the thickness to length, the width-length ratio, the power law index and the porosity coefficient.
-
6.
Examination of different material distributions shows that V-distribution predicts the highest flutter boundary and flutter frequency.
