Vibrational Behavior

This paper investigates the vibrational behavior of beams made of functionally graded materials using a mixed formulation. Unlike the other high order shear deformation theories (HSDTs), the proposed formulation is elaborated within a double field of displacements and stresses which offers the possibility of the development of low order linear elements with enhanced accuracy. As well as, the effect of the transverse shear strains and the zero condition of the transverse shear stresses on the top and bottom surfaces are verified. The material characteristics of the beams are described via a power law distribution in order to take into account the continuous variation of the volume fraction of its constituents along the thickness direction. Numerical simulations are conducted to show the influence of power law index, slenderness ratios, and boundary conditions on natural frequencies of functionally graded beams. Results demonstrate the efficiency and the applicability of the model based on a refined mixed formulation and its ability to predict the vibrational behavior of functionally graded beams with good accuracy.

Two assumptions have been made based on by this proposed theory, which come from recently developed exponential–trigonometric shape function for transverse shear deformation effect and a simple higher order shear deformation theory for plate, based on a constraint between two rotational displacements of axis parallel to the plate midplane, about the axes x, y Cartesian coordinates system, which caused fewer unknown number. For the application of this method, a displacement field extended as only bending membrane for transverse displacement is used, a governing equations of motion as a result are determined according to Hamilton’s principle, and simplified using Navier analytical solutions, as well as the transverse shear stresses effect that satisfied the stress-free boundary conditions on the simply supported plate free faces as a parabolic variation along the thickness are taken into account. A functionally graded materials plates are chosen for the parametric study, where the plates are functionally graded continuously in materials through the plate thickness as a function of power law or exponential form. The aim of this study is to analyze the bending, free vibration as well as the buckling mechanical behaviors, where the results are more focused on the investigation of different parameters such as the volume fraction index, geometric ratios, frequency modes, in-plane compressive load parameters and material properties effects on the deflection, stresses, natural frequencies, and critical buckling load, which are validated in terms of accuracy and efficiency with other plate theories results found in the literature.
