Free vibration characteristics of filament wound anisotropic shells of revolution are investigated by using multisegment numerical integration technique in combination with a modified frequency trial method. The applicability of multisegment numerical integration technique is extended to the solution of free vibration problem of anisotropic composite shells of revolution through the use of finite exponential Fourier transform of the fundamental shell equations. The governing shell equations comprise the full anisotropic form of the constitutive relations, including first-order transverse shear deformation, and all components of translatory and rotary inertia. The variation of the stiffness coefficients along the axis of the shell is also incorporated into the solution method. Filaments are assumed to be placed along the geodesic fiber path on the shell of revolution resulting in the variation of the stiffness coefficients along the axis of the composite shell of revolution with general meridional curvature. Sample solutions have been performed on the effect of the variation of the stiffness coefficients on the free vibration behavior of filament wound truncated conical and spherical shells of revolution.
