AbstractIn this study, a vibration problem of Euler-Bernoulli beam manufactured with Functionally Graded Material (FGM), which is modelled by fourth-order partial differential equations with variable coefficients, is examined by using the Adomian Decomposition Method (ADM).The method is one of the useful and powerful methods which can be easily applied to linear and nonlinear initial and boundary value problems. As to functionally graded materials, they are composites mixed by two or more materials at a certain rate. This mixture at a certain rate is expressed with an exponential function in order to try to minimize singularities from transition between different surfaces of materials as much as possible. According to the structure of the ADM in terms of initial conditions of the problem, a Fourier series expansion method is used along with the ADM for the solution of simply supported functionally graded Euler-Bernoulli beams. Finally, by choosing an appropriate mixture rate for the material, the results are shown in figures and compared with those of a standard (homogeneous) Euler-Bernoulli beam.

PurposeThis paper presents the problems using Laplace Adomian decomposition method (LADM) for investigating the deformation and nonlinear behavior of the large deflection problems on Euler-Bernoulli beam.Design/methodology/approachThe governing equations will be converted to characteristic equations based on the LADM. The validity of the LADM has been confirmed by comparing the numerical results to different methods.FindingsThe results of the LADM are found to be better than the results of Adomian decomposition method (ADM), due to this method's rapid convergence and accuracy to obtain the solutions by using fewer iterative terms. LADM are presented for two examples for large deflection problems. The results obtained from example 1 shows the effects of the loading, horizontal parameters and moment parameters. Example 2 demonstrates the point loading and point angle influence on the Euler-Bernoulli beam.Originality/valueThe results of the LADM are found to be better than the results of ADM, due to this method's rapid convergence and accuracy to obtain the solutions by using fewer iterative terms.

We investigate semianalytical solutions of Euler-Bernoulli beam equation by using Laplace transform and Adomian decomposition method (LADM). The deformation of a uniform flexible cantilever beam is formulated to initial value problems. We separate the problems into 2 cases: integer order for small deformation and fractional order for large deformation. The numerical results show the approximated solutions of deflection curve, moment diagram, and shear diagram of the presented method.

In recent times, the subject of effective cooling have become an interesting research topic for electronic and mechanical engineers due to the increased miniaturization trend in modern electronic systems. However, fins are useful for cooling various low and high power electronic systems. For improved thermal management of electronic systems, porous fins of functionally graded materials (FGM) have been identified as a viable candidate to enhance cooling. The present study presents an analysis of a convective–radiative porous fin of FGM. For theoretical investigations, the thermal property of the functionally graded material is assumed to follow linear and power-law functions. In this study, we investigated the effects of inhomogeneity index of FGM, convective and radiative variables on the thermal performance of the porous heatsink. The results of the present study show that an increase in the inhomogeneity index of FGM, convective and radiative parameter improves fin efficiency. Moreover, the rate of heat transfer in longitudinal FGM fin increases as β increases. The temperature prediction using the Adomian decomposition method is in excellent agreement with other analytical and method.

In this paper, we compare the Differential transformation method and Adomian decomposition method to solve Euler-Bernoulli Beam vibration problems. The natural frequencies and mode shapes of the clamped-free uniform Euler-Bernoulli equation are calculated using the two methods. The Adomian decomposition method avoids the difficulties and massive computational work inherent in Differential transformation method by determining the very rapidly convergent analytic solutions directly. We found the solution between the two methods to be quite close. According to calculation of eigenvalues, natural frequencies and mode shapes, we compare the convergence of Differential transformation method and Adomian decomposition method. The two methods can be alternative ways to solve linear and nonlinear higher-order initial value problems.

The free vibrations of a stepped Euler-Bernoulli beam are investigated by using the Adomian decomposition method (ADM). The stepped beam consists two uniform sections and each section is considered a substructure which can be modeled using ADM. By using boundary condition and continuity condition equations, the dimensionless natural frequencies and corresponding mode shapes can be easily obtained simultaneously. The computed results for different boundary conditions are presented. Comparing the results using ADM to those given in the literature, excellent agreement is achieved.

In this study, an Euler–Bernoulli beam carrying periodic arrays of meander-shaped beams is introduced. Each meander-shaped beam consists of several connected beam elements. Two models with different number of beam elements are considered. In each model, the effects of geometrical parameters on the lower and upper edges of the first three band gaps are investigated using the Adomian decomposition method. Results show that the wide band gaps at low frequency ranges can be obtained by changing the geometrical parameters. Furthermore, the band gaps are very close to each other for specific values of the geometrical parameters. Another advantage of this periodic beam is that its length is shorter than other types of periodic beams. These features make this periodic beam very useful in different applications of the band gap phenomenon such as vibration absorption. The finite element simulation (ANSYS software) is used to validate the analytical results and good agreement is found.

In this paper, the weakly nonlinear shallow-water wave model is mathematically investigated by applying the modified Riccati-expansion method and Adomian decomposition method. This model is used to describe the propagation of waves in weakly nonlinear and dispersive media. We obtain exact and solitary wave solutions of this model by using the modified Riccati-expansion method then using these solutions to determine the boundary and initial conditions. These conditions are employed to evaluate the semi-analytical wave solutions and calculate the absolute value of error. The values of absolute error show the accuracy of the obtained solutions. Some solutions are sketched to show the perspective view of the solution of this model. Moreover, the novelty of the obtained solutions is illustrated by showing the similarity and differences between our and previous solutions of the model.

The governing equations for a pre-twisted rotating cantilever beam are derived and used for free vibration analysis of a pre-twisted rotating beam whose flexural displacements are coupled in two planes. First differential equations of motion of a rotating twisted beam, including terms due to centrifugal stiffening, are derived for an Euler–Bernoulli beam undergoing free natural vibrations. The general solutions of these equations are obtained on applying the Adomian modified decomposition method (AMDM). The AMDM allows the governing differential equations to become recursive algebraic equations and the boundary conditions to become simple algebraic frequency equations suitable for symbolic computation. With additional simple mathematical operations on the model, the natural frequencies and corresponding closed-form series solution of the mode shape can be obtained simultaneously. Two main advantages of the application of the AMDM are, for the cases considered here, its fast convergence rate to the solution with the high degree of accuracy. As the AMDM technique is systematic, it is found straight-forward to modify boundary conditions from one case to the next. Comparison of results with published data showed the present calculations to be in reasonable agreement.
