AbstractAnalyses of free vibration and thermal buckling of nanobeams using nonlocal shear deformation beam theories under various boundary conditions are precisely illustrated. The present beam is restricted by vertically distributed identical springs at the top and bottom surfaces of the beam. The equations of motion are derived using the dynamic version of Hamilton's principle. The governing equations are solved analytically when the edges of the beam are simply supported, clamped or free. Thermal buckling solution is formulated for two types of temperature change through the thickness of the beam: Uniform and linear temperature rise. To validate the accuracy of the results of the present analysis, the results are compared, as possible, with solutions found in the literature. Furthermore, the influences of nonlocal coefficient, stiffness of Winkler springs and span-to-thickness ratio on the frequencies and thermal buckling of the embedded nanobeams are examined.

In this article, the well-posedness of several common nonlocal models for higher-order refined shear deformation beams is studied. Unlike the case of classic beams models, both strain-driven and stress-driven purely nonlocal theories lead to an ill-posed issue (i.e., there are excessive mandatory boundary conditions) when considering higher-order shear deformation assumption. As an effective remedy, the well-posedness of strain-driven and stress-driven two-phase nonlocal (StrainDTPN and StressDTPN) models is pertinently evidenced by studying the free vibration problem of nanobeams. The governing equations of motion and standard boundary conditions are derived from Hamilton’s principle. The integral constitutive relation is transformed equivalently to a differential form equipped with two constitutive boundary conditions. Using the generalized differential quadrature method (GDQM), the governing equations in terms of displacements are solved numerically. Numerical results show that both the StrainDTPN and StressDTPN models can predict consistent size-effects of beams with different boundary conditions.

This paper presents the free vibration analysis of a sandwich beam with a tip mass using higher order sandwich panel theory (HSAPT). The governing equations of motion and boundary conditions are obtained using Hamilton’s principle. General Differential Quadrature (GDQ) is employed to solve the system governing equations of motion. The natural frequencies and mode shapes of the system are presented and Ansys simulation is performed to validate the results. Various boundary conditions are also employed to examine the natural frequencies of the sandwich beam without tip mass and the results are compared with those found in the literature. Parametric studies are conducted to examine the effect of key design parameters on the natural frequencies of the sandwich beam with and without tip mass.

Ring Support

In the present work, the free vibration of thin cylindrical shells with ring support made of functionally graded materials under various symmetrical boundary conditions is presented. Temperature and position dependent material properties are varied linearly through the thickness of the shell. The functionally graded cylindrical shell has ring support which is arbitrarily placed along the shell and imposed a zero lateral deflection. The third order shear deformation theory is employed to formulate the problem. The governing equations of motion are derived using the Hamilton’s principle. Results are presented on the frequency characteristics and influence of the boundary conditions and the locations of the ring support on the natural frequencies. The present analysis is validated by comparing the results with those available in the literature.

This paper gives a relatively novel computational approach, the discrete singular convolution (DSC) algorithm, for the free vibration analysis of isotropic and orthotropic conical shells with different boundary conditions. The governing differential equations of vibration of the shell are formulated using Love's first approximation classical thin shell theory. In the proposed approach, the derivatives in both the governing equations and the boundary conditions are discretized by the method of DSC. Typical numerical results are presented illustrating the effect of various geometric and material parameters. The influence of boundary conditions on the frequency characteristics is also discussed. The obtained results are in excellent agreement with those in the literature.

Bending analysis of thick laminated rectangular plates with various boundary conditions is presented using Generalized Differential Quadrature (GDQ) method. Based on the Reissner first order shear deformation theory, the governing equations include a system of eight first order partial differential equations in terms of unknown displacements, forces and moments. Presence of all plate variables in the governing equations provide a simple procedure to satisfy different boundary condition during application of GDQ method to obtain accurate results with relatively small number of grid points even for plates with free edges .Illustrative examples including various combinations of clamped, simply supported and free boundary condition are given to demonstrate the accuracy and convergence of the presented GDQ technique. Results are compared with other analytical and finite element predictions and show reasonably good agreement.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the heat transfer in an arbitrary cavity filled with porous medium. The geometry of the cavity is such that an isothermal heating source is placed centrally at the bottom of the cavity. The height and width of the heating source is varied to analyses its effect on the heat transfer characteristics. The investigation is carried out for three different cases of outer boundary conditions such as two outside vertical walls being maintained at cold temperature To, two vertical and top horizontal surface being heated to. To and the third case with top surface kept at To but other surfaces being adiabatic. Design/methodology/approach Finite element method is used to solve the governing equations. Findings It is observed that the cavity exhibits unique heat transfer behavior as compared to regular cavity. The cases of boundary conditions are found to affect the heat transfer rate in the porous cavity. Originality/value This is original work representing the heat transfer in irregular porous cavity with various boundary conditions. This work is neither being published nor under review in any other journal.

Modified Couple Stress

The vibration behavior of piezoelectric microbeams is studied on the basis of the modified couple stress theory. The governing equations of motion and boundary conditions for the Euler-Bernoulli and Timoshenko beam models are derived using Hamilton’s principle. By the exact solution of the governing equations, an expression for natural frequencies of microbeams with simply supported boundary conditions is obtained. Numerical results for both beam models are presented and the effects of piezoelectricity and length scale parameter are illustrated. It is found that the influences of piezoelectricity and size effects are more prominent when the length of microbeams decreases. A comparison between two beam models also reveals that the Euler-Bernoulli beam model tends to overestimate the natural frequencies of microbeams as compared to its Timoshenko counterpart.

The present study considers the free vibration analysis of moderately thick conical shells based on the Novozhilov theory. The higher order governing equations of motion and the associate boundary conditions are obtained for the first time. Using the Frobenius method, exact base solutions are obtained in the form of power series via general recursive relations which can be applied for any arbitrary boundary conditions. The obtained results are compared with the literature and very good agreement (up to 4%) is achieved. A comprehensive parametric study is performed to provide an insight into the variation of the natural frequencies with respect to thickness, semivertex angle, circumferential wave numbers for clamped (C), and simply supported (SS) boundary conditions.
