Abstract
This paper dealt with free vibration analysis of thick double curved composite sandwich panels with simply supported or fully clamped boundary conditions based on a new improved higher order sandwich panel theory. The formulation used the first order shear deformation theory for composite face sheets and polynomial description for the displacement field in the core layer which was based on the displacement field of Frostig's second model. The fully dynamic effects of the core layer and face sheets were also considered in this study. Using the Hamilton's principle, the gov-erning equations were derived. Moreover, effects of some im-portant parameters like that of boundary conditions, thickness ratio of the core to panel, radii curvatures and composite lay-up sequences were investigated on free vibration response of the pan-el. The results were validated by those published in the literature and with the FE results obtained by ABAQUS software. It was shown that thicker panels with a thicker core provided greater resistance to resonant vibrations. Also, effect of increasing the core thickness in general was significant decreased fundamental natural frequency values.

1 INTRODUCTION
Structural efficiency is an important attribute for aircraft structures. A higher order theory ap-proach, used by Kant and Patil (1991), replaced sandwich structure with an equivalent higher order shear deformable structure, which lacked the ability to determine local buckling modes and imper-fection effects on the overall behavior. Using the three-dimensional elasticity equations, Bhimaraddi (1993) studied the static response of orthotropic doubly curved shallow shells. He assumed that the ratio of the shell thickness to its middle surface radius is negligible as compared to unity. The

er order sandwich panel theory was developed by Frostig et al. (1994, 2004), who considered two
types of computational models in order to express governing equations of the core layer. The second model assumed a polynomial description of the displacement fields in the core that was based on displacement fields of the first model. Their theory did not impose any restrictions on distribution of the deformation through thickness of the core. Singh (1999) studied free vibration of the open deep sandwich shells made of thin layers and a moderately thick core. Rayleigh–Ritz method was also used to obtain natural frequencies. The improved higher order sandwich plate theory (IHSAPT), applying the first-order shear deformation theory for the face sheets, was introduced by Malekzadeh et al. (2005, 2006).

Zenkour (2005a, b) presented a comprehensive bending, buckling and free vibration analysis of simply supported functionally graded (FG) ceramic–metal sandwich plates. The sandwich plate face sheets were assumed to be isotropic material. Two-constituent material distribution through thick-ness was assumed to vary according to a power law distribution.Garg et al. (2006) investigated free
vibration analysis of simply supported composite and sandwich doubly curved shells. Their formula-tion included Sander's theory based on equivalent single layer approach. Free vibraformula-tion of FG ma-terial sandwich rectangular plates with simply supported and clamped edges was studied by Li et al. (2008). The governing equations based on the three-dimensional linear theory of elasticity were
derived and also they considered two common types of FG sandwich plates, namely sandwich plate with FG face sheets and homogeneous core and sandwich plate with homogeneous face sheets and FG core.
Experimental and analytical investigations of bending and free vibration response of layered FG beams were carried out by Kapuria et al. (2008), who demonstrated capability of the zigzag theory
in modeling mechanics of such beams. Rahmani et al. (2009) studied free vibration analysis of open
single curved composite sandwich panel with a flexible core using a higher order sandwich panel theory. Their formulation used classical shell theory for the face sheets and an elasticity theory for the core layer. Cetkovic and Vuksanovic (2009) investigated global and local responses of laminated and sandwich structures using Reddy's theory, finite element solution and based on equivalent sin-gle layer approach. Biglari and Jafari (2010a) presented a simple three layer theory in order to study vibration and static analysis of open single curved sandwich structures. In their model, they used Donell's theory for the face sheets and considered inconsistent linear stress variation in the core layer. They (2010b) also studied the free vibrations of doubly curved sandwich shell with flexi-ble core based on a refined general-purpose sandwich panel theory. In their theory, the in-plane stresses of the core were neglected.
Free vibration analysis of thick orthotropic plates was performed by Ghugal et al. (2011) using a
Latin American Journal of Solids and Structures 11 (2014) 2284-2307
and bottom surfaces of the plates were satisfied. Rahmani et al. (2012) studied the free vibration
and buckling analyses of circular cylindrical composite sandwich shells subjected to external loads based on the Love–Kirchhoff assumptions for the face sheets. In their theory, the in-plane stresses of the core and the out of stresses of the face sheets were neglected. Mochida et al. (2012) studied free
vibration response of doubly curved shallow shells using approximate Galerkin method. Classical theory of elasticity and von-Karman’s non-linear deformation theory were used by Rafieipour et al. (2013) to investigate free vibration analyses of laminated composite plates.
Using developed four-node quadrilateral element and the zigzag theory, Yasin and Kapuria (2013) studied the static and free vibration analysis of singly- and doubly-curved composite and sandwich shallow shells. In their theory, the transverse normal stresses were neglected. Ghavanloo and Fazelzadeh (2013) examined free vibration analysis of simply supported doubly curved shallow shells. Their formulation was based on Novozhilov's linear shallow shell theory. Using Donell’s non-linear shallow shell theory and Kirchhoff’s hypothesis, Awrejcewicz et al. (2013) studied free
vibra-tion analysis of doubly curved orthotropic shallow shells. Viola et al. (2013) used a 2D higher order
shear deformation theory with nine parameters in order to analyze free vibration analysis of the thick laminated doubly curved shells and panels. Their main assumptions were based on small de-flections and negligible normal stress and strain. A high-order model for the analysis of circular cylindrical composite sandwich shells subjected to low-velocity impact loads was presented by Kha-lili et al. (2014). In their theory, the impact behavior of the cylindrical composite sandwich shells
was described by a high-order sandwich shell theory. Malekzadeh et al. (2014) applied the
first-order shear deformation theory to study effects of some geometrical, physical and material parame-ters on response of the composite plates embedded with shape memory alloy (SMA) wires.
This study investigated free vibration analysis of double curved thick composite sandwich panels using a new improved higher order double curved sandwich panel theory and the second computa-tional model of Frostig (2004). In this work, analytical solution of the displacement field of the core was presented in terms of the polynomials with unknown coefficients according to the second com-putational model of Frostig (2004). Furthermore, the formulation included accurate stress-resultant equations for composite sandwich structures, in which the terms (1+zc /Rxc)and (1+zc /Ryc)
were imported in equations and exactly integrated. These coefficients could be very important in the structural analysis of thick double curved composite sandwich structures. Simply supported and fully clamped boundary conditions were considered. In order to assure accuracy of the present for-mulations, convergence of the results was examined in details.

2.2 Mathematical Formulation
Mathematical formulation consists of deriving the governing field equations of motion along appro-priate boundary conditions of the face sheets and core. They are derived using the Hamilton's prin-ciple (Frostig 2004).
Using the first shear deformation theory, displacements u, v and w of the face sheets along the x, y (longitudinal) and z (thickness) axes are expressed through the following relations (Reddy 2003):
