Abstract: Cylinder–plate combined structures (CPCS) are widely used in aerospace, marine engineering, and offshore platform systems. During service, they are frequently subjected to stochastic excitations induced by turbulent boundary layers, acoustic loads, hydrodynamic disturbances, and broadband operational vibrations. Excessive random vibration responses may significantly reduce structural reliability, accelerate fatigue damage, and compromise operational safety. To address these engineering challenges, a unified stochastic dynamic analysis and vibration suppression framework is established for functionally graded graphene platelet-reinforced composites (FG-GPLRC) CPCS equipped with distributed dynamic vibration absorbers (DVAs). Adopting the First-order Shear Deformation Theory (FSDT), a comprehensive energy functional for the CPCS is established, in which the penalty method is implemented to impose boundary conditions and ensure interface continuity. Subsequently, the Pseudo-excitation Method (PEM) is utilized to convert the stochastic vibration analysis into an equivalent deterministic harmonic problem, and the governing equations are spatially discretized by combining the spectral geometric method (SGM) with the Ritz variational procedure, enabling efficient evaluation of power spectral density (PSD) and root-mean-square (RMS) responses. The reliability of the proposed model is verified through a series of numerical validation comparisons. On this basis, comprehensive parametric investigations are conducted to assess how material properties, structural geometries, and critical DVA parameters influence system behavior. The results demonstrate that the incorporation of distributed DVAs can achieve superior vibration suppression performance. This study provides an efficient and reliable theoretical framework for stochastic vibration analysis and damping design of advanced composite plate–shell coupled structures operating in complex random environments, offering important theoretical support for dynamic optimization design in aerospace and marine engineering applications.
