This paper is concerned with vibration and transient response problems of viscoelastic plates with curved boundaries of arbitrary shape subjected to general dynamic loads. The results for free and forced vibration problems are given in generalized forms for arbitrary-shaped viscoelastic plates. As examples of this problem, the free vibration of a circular clamped viscoelastic plate with an eccentric hole and the dynamic response of a circular solid viscoelastic plate subjected to an eccentric annular impact load are discussed. Numerical calculations are carried out for both the problem, and experimental results are also obtained as an additional check of this study.

AbstractLaplace Transform is often used in solving the free vibration problems of structural beams. In existing research, there are two types of simplified models of continuous beam placement. The first is to regard the continuous beam as a single-span beam, the middle bearing of which is replaced by the bearing reaction force; the second is to divide the continuous beam into several simply supported beams, with the bending moment of the continuous beam at the middle bearing considered as the external force. Research shows that the second simplified model is incorrect, and the frequency equation derived from the first simplified model contains multiple expressions which might not be equivalent to each other. This paper specifies the application method of Laplace Transform in solving the free vibration problems of continuous beams, having great significance in the proper use of the transform method.

Abstract The development of (DQEM) analysis models of static deformation and free vibration problems of generic non-prismatic beam structures was carried out. The DQEM uses the extended differential quadrature (EDQ) to discretize the buckling equilibrium equation defined on each element, the transition conditions defined on the inter-element boundary of two adjacent elements and the boundary conditions of the beam. Numerical results solved by the developed numerical algorithm are presented. They prove that the DQEM efficient.

This study introduces using differential transform to solve the free vibration problems of a general elastically end restrained non-uniform Timoshenko beam. First, differential transform is briefly introduced. Second, taking differential transform of a non-uniform Timoshenko beam vibration problem, a set of difference equations is derived. Doing some simple algebraic operations on these equations, we can determine any i-th natural frequency, the closed form series solution of any i-th normalized mode shape. Finally, three examples are given to illustrate the accuracy and efficiency of the present method.

A topological optimization technique using the conception of OMD (Optimal Material Distribution) is presented for free vibration problems of a structure. A new objective function corresponding to multieigenvalue optimization is suggested for improving the solution of the eigenvalue optimization problem. An improved optimization algorithm is then applied to solve these problems, which is derived by the authors using a new convex generalized-linearization approach via a shift parameter which corresponds to the Lagrange multiplier and the use of the dual method. Finally, three example applications are given to substantiate the feasibility of the approaches presented in this paper.
