The primary aim of this book is to give the reader an insight into the mechanics of vibrations of cylindrical shells, rather than to present him with a method for straightforward eigendata calculations. The contents are laid out phenomenologically. The first chapter conveys an elementary idea on the elastic strain in a thin shell, arising from the so-called membrane theory, the limitations of this theory are assessed with a clear physical interpretation of its drawbacks. The main emphasis of the book lies in the second chapter, where the reader will find a rigorous interpretation of the fundamental aspects of the so-called bending theory of shells. The major part of this chapter is devoted to thin-shell deformation theories. The solution of the exact equations of dynamic equilibrium that can be derived by the underlying linear theory of mathematical elasticity is discussed in the third chapter. The fourth chapter is an extension of the original Slovak version of this book. New research data in the field of vibrations of shell-like structures are presented mainly for layered shells. A simple mathematical approach is used throughout the book.
