The present research proposes an applicable and impressive analytical model of Aircraft Engine Cowl (AEC) due to auspicate its frequency parameter. For the first time, the authors configured the structure of AEC by joining two well-known shapes of shell, including elliptical and conical. This procedure is implemented by obtaining the governing motion organization of differential equations affiliated with the Joined Elliptical-Conical Shells (JECS) in line with first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT) and General Shell Formulation (GSF). Moreover, Functionally Graded Materials (FGMs) with various spreading forms along the structure’s thickness are used to enhance the dynamic performance of AEC. It is worth mentioning that the recognized Rule of Mixture (RM) is engaged for achieving the equivalent mechanical characteristics of FGM. Finally, a well-known semi-analytical Generalized Differential Quadrature (GDQ) procedure is hired to extract the resulting system of motion equations to access the free vibration responses of AEC with diverse Boundary Conditions (BCs). It is worth mentioning that an applicable and interesting numerical model is done to inspect the remnants of geometric and material features on the oscillation demeanor of AEC structures. It will be verified that the projected procedure can be helpful for AEC’s vibration analysis and extendable for other types of studies to predict the AEC structure\\\'s static and dynamic treatment.
