description Free vibration of layered truncated conical and circular cylindrical shells filled with fluid based on Love’s first approximation theory are analysed in this research. In addition, investigation regarding the free vibration of laminated composite circular cylindrical shells filled with fluid using the first order shear deformation theory also presented. In this study, the shell is filled with quiescent fluid and analysed using the spline method. The shell equations are assumed to be in a separable form, which hence a set of coupled ordinary differential equations in the term of displacement functions is obtained for the case of the Love’s first approximation theory.
