The natural frequencies of skewed slabs (in the shape of a parallelogram) of uniform thickness and linear elastic isotropic material are considered. It is shown that the natural frequencies of a skewed slab can be related to those of the corresponding rectangular slab by means of an equivalent rectangular slab concept. Charts are presented to allow the computation of the natural frequencies of one-, two-, and three-span symmetric skewed slabs, which are simply supported at each end and free along each edge.

The analysis of free vibration of simply-supported lamineted composite coated beams is investigated. With a core made from an isotropic material (steel) and faces made from composite material, (glass/epoxy and carbon/epoxy), two sandwich beam models are used in the study. For this purpose, a computer code is developed using MATLAB to perform the analysis of free-vibration of strengthened beams by composite coats. The effects of the variation of different parameters such as the span/depth ratio, fiber orientation angle of the coat, and thickness ratio on natural frequencies and of the beam are examined.

In this study the effect of local loads applied on a sectorial toroidal shell (pipe bend) is considered. A linear elastic shell theory solution for local loads is first outlined. The solution corresponds to the case of a shell simply supported at the two ends. Detailed displacement and stress results are then given for a specific shell with loadings centred at three positions; the crown circles, the extrados, and the intrados. These results are compared with results for a corresponding cylindrical shell. The paper concludes with a table summarizing results for characteristic displacements and stresses in a number of shells, covering a wide range of geometric parameters.

Sinusoidal shear deformation theory is presented to analyze the natural frequencies of simply supported laminated composite plates. The governing differential equations based on sinusoidal theory are solved by a Navier-type analytical method. The present results are compared with the available published results which verify the accuracy of sinusoidal theory.

AbstractFree vibration analysis of functionally graded (FG) curved panels integrated with piezoelectric layers under various boundary conditions is studied. A panel with two opposite edges is simply supported, and arbitrary boundary conditions at the other edges are considered. Two different models of material property variations based on the power law distribution in terms of the volume fractions of the constituents and the exponential law distribution of the material properties through the thickness are considered. Based on the three-dimensional theory of elasticity, an approach combining the state space method and the differential quadrature method (DQM) is used. For the simply supported boundary conditions, closed-form solution is given by making use of the Fourier series expansion, and applying the differential quadrature method to the state space formulations along the axial direction, new state equations about state variables at discrete points are obtained for the other cases such as clamped or free-end conditions. Natural frequencies of the hybrid curved panels are presented by solving the eigenfrequency equation, which can be obtained by using edges boundary conditions in this state equation. The results obtained for only FGM shell is verified by comparing the natural frequencies with the results obtained in the literature.

Abstract Natural frequencies of parallelogrammic plates are obtained by employing a set of beam characteristic orthogonal polynomials in the Rayleigh-Ritz method. The orthogonal polynomials are generalted by using a Gram-Schmidt process, after the first member is constructed so as to satisfy all the boundary conditions of the corresponding beam problems accompanying the plate problems. The strain energy functional and kinetic energy functionals are transformed from Cartesian coordinate system to a skew coordinate system. The natural frequencies obtained by using the orthogonal polynomial functions are compared with those obtained by other methods with all four edges clamped boundary conditions and greet agreements are found between them. The natural frequencies for parallelogrammic plates with other boundary conditions, such as four edges simply supported, clamped-free and simply supported-free, are also obtained. This method is considered as a better and accurate comprehensive treatment for this type of problems.

Free-vibration characteristics of a thin-walled, open cross-section beam, with unconstrained damping layers at the flanges, are investigated. Both uncoupled transverse vibration and the coupled bending-torsion oscillations, of a beam of a top-hat section, are considered. Numerical results are presented for natural frequencies and modal loss factors of simply supported and clamped-clamped beams.

The induced flexural vibration of slender pipe systems with continuous non uniform cross sectional area containing laminar flowing fluid lying on extended Winkler viscoelastic foundation is considered. The Euler Bernoulli model of the pipe has hinged ends. The inlet flow is considered constant steady that interacts with the wall of the pipe. The mathematical model is developed and its corresponding solution is obtained. The influence of the combination of variation of cross section, foundation stiffness and damping on the critical velocities, complex natural frequencies and stabilization of the system is presented.

The related researches show that , the sunshine temperature field can cause the changes of the natural frequencies of the simply-supported beam. In order to recover the influence law of the temperature field on the natural frequencies, the calculation method of the natural frequencies of the simply-supported beam bridge is formed. First, according to the principles of stress equivalence, transform the sunshine temperature field to the partiality axis forces. Based on the Bernoulli model, the calculation method of the natural frequencies of the simply-supported beam under the partiality axis forces at both ends is formed. At last, take one simply-supported T beam as the object of numerical modeling and verify the validity and the reliability of this method.

The present study investigates the dynamical behavior of lattice plates, including both bending and shear interactions. The exact natural frequencies of this lattice plate are calculated for simply supported boundary conditions. These exact solutions are compared with some continuous nonlocal plate solutions that account for some scale effects due to the lattice spacing. Two continualized and one phenomenological nonlocal UflyandMindlin plate models that take into account both the rotary inertia and the shear effects are developed for capturing the small length scale effect of microstructured (or lattice) thick plates by associating the small length scale coefficient introduced in the nonlocal approach to some length scale coefficients given in a Taylor or a rational series expansion. The nonlocal phenomenological model constitutes the stress gradient Eringen’s model applied at the plate scale. The continualization process constructs continuous equation from the one of the discrete lattice models. The governing partial differential equations are solved in displacement for each nonlocal plate model. An exact analytical vibration solution is obtained for the natural frequencies of the simply supported rectangular nonlocal plate. As expected, it is found that the continualized models lead to a constant small length scale coefficient, whereas for the phenomenological nonlocal approaches, the coefficient, calibrated with respect to the element size of the microstructured plate, is structure-dependent. Moreover, comparing the natural frequencies of the continuous models with the exact discrete one, it is concluded that the continualized models provide much more accurate results than the nonlocal Uflyand–Mindlin plate models.

Fundamental natural frequencies of rotating functionally graded cylindrical shells have been calculated through the improved wave propagation approach using three different volume fraction laws. The governing shell equations are obtained from Love’s shell approximations using improved rotating terms and the new equations are obtained in standard eigenvalue problem with wave propagation approach and volume fraction laws. The effects of circumferential wave number, rotating speed, length-to-radius, and thickness-to-radius ratios have been computed with various combinations of axial wave numbers and volume fraction law exponent on the fundamental natural frequencies of nonrotating and rotating functionally graded cylindrical shells using wave propagation approach and volume fraction laws with simply supported edge. In this work, variation of material properties of functionally graded materials is controlled by three volume fraction laws. This process creates a variation in the results of shell frequency. MATLAB programming has been used to determine shell frequencies for traveling mode (backward and forward) rotating motions. New estimations show that the rotating forward and backward simply supported fundamental natural frequencies increases with an increase in circumferential wave number, for Type I and Type II of functionally graded cylindrical shells. The presented results of backward and forward simply supported fundamental natural frequencies corresponding to Law I are higher than Laws II and III for Type I and reverse effects are found for Type II, depending on rotating speed. Our investigations show that the decreasing and increasing behaviors are noted for rotating simply supported fundamental natural frequencies with increasing length-to-radius and thickness-to-radius ratios, respectively. It is found that the fundamental frequencies of the forward waves decrease with the increase in the rotating speed, and the fundamental frequencies of the backward waves increase with the increase in the rotating speed. This investigation has been made with three different volume fraction laws of polynomial (Law I), exponential (Law II), and trigonometric (Law III). The presented numerical results of nonrotating isotropic and rotating functionally graded simply supported are in fair agreement with parts of other earlier numerical results.
