Popis: The chaotic motion of an elastic cylindrical shell has been studied in this paper; its dynamic equation contains square and cubic nonlinear items. By means of the Garlerkin approach and the Melnikov method, the critical condition for chaotic motion has been obtained. Two demonstrative examples have been discussed through Poincare mapping, phase portrait and time history.
