AbstractThis article deals with free vibration of the variable cross-section (non-uniform) single-layered graphene nano-ribbons (SLGNRs) resting on Winkler elastic foundation using the Differential Quadrature Method (DQM). Here characteristic width of the cross-section is varied exponentially along the length of the nano-ribbon while the thickness of the cross section is kept constant. Euler–Bernoulli beam theory in conjunction with Eringen nonlocal elasticity theory is considered in this study. The numerical as well as graphical results are reported by using MATLAB codes developed by authors. Convergence of present method is explored and our results are compared with known results available in literature showing excellent agreement. Further, effects various parameters on frequency parameters are studied comprehensively.

Functionally gradient materials with special mechanical characteristics are more and more widely used in engineering. The functionally graded beam is one of the commonly used components to bear forces in the structure. Accurate analysis of the dynamic characteristics of the axially functionally graded (AFG) beam plays a vital role in the design and safe operation of the whole structure. Based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory (EBT), the characteristic equation of transverse free vibration for the AFG Euler-Bernoulli beam with variable cross-section is obtained in the present work, and the governing equations of the beam are transformed into ordinary differential equations with variable coefficients. Using differential quadrature method (DQM), the solution formulas of characteristic equations under different boundary conditions are derived, and the natural frequencies of the AFG beam are calculated, while the node partition of a non-uniform geometric progression is discussed.

The main advantages of the differential quadrature method are its inherent conceptual simplicity and the fact that easily programmable algorithmic expressions are obtained. It was developed by Bellman in the 1970s but only recently has been applied in the solution of technically important problems. Essentially, it consists of the approximate solution of the differential system by means of a polynomial–collocation approach at a finite number of points selected by the analyst. This article reports some numerical experiments on vibrating Timoshenko beams of nonuniform cross-section.

Considering the geometric and material coupling of a composite wing, the equations of motion are derived based on Hamilton theory. Frequencies computing and validation of a composite wing with bending-torsion coupling using differential quadrature method (DQM). And the DQM is applied to the flutter speed solution of a composite wing. The results thus obtained are then compared with some available results and a good agreement is observed. The computing time of DQM is highly improved compared with Galerkin method. Moreover, the effect of material coupling rigidity on flutter speed is analyzed and this is important to the design of composite wings.
