In the framework of the membrane theory of cylindrical shells, the localised vibration near the shell free edge is considered. This paper presents the development leading to the dispersion equations for finite length shells and for three types of boundary conditions. Based on the attained dispersion equations the localised membrane vibration conditions are analysed and remarks are offered.
