To reflect vibration more comprehensively and to satisfy the machining demand for high-order frequencies, we presented a three-dimensional free vibration analysis of gears with variable thickness using the Chebyshev–Ritz method based on three-dimensional elasticity theory. We derived the eigenvalue equations. We divided the gear model into three annular parts along the locations of the step variations, and the admissible function was a Ritz series that consisted of a Chebyshev polynomial multiplying boundary function. The convergence study demonstrated the high accuracy of the present method. We used a hammering method for a modal experiment to test two annular plates and one gear’s eigenfrequencies in a completely free condition. We also applied the finite element method to solve the eigenfrequencies. Through a comparative analysis of the frequencies obtained by these three methods, we found that the results achieved by the Chebyshev–Ritz method were close to those obtained from the experiment and finite element method. The relative errors of four sets of data were greater than 4%, and the errors of the other 48 sets were less than 4%. Thus, it was feasible to use the Chebyshev–Ritz method to solve the eigenfrequencies of gears with variable thickness.

The present paper investigates the free vibration analysis for functionally graded material plates of linearly varying thickness. A non-polynomial higher order shear deformation theory is used, which is based on inverse hyperbolic shape function for the tapered FGM plate. Three different types of material gradation laws, specifically: a power (P-FGM), exponential (E-FGM), and sigmoid law (S-FGM) are used to calculate the property variation in the thickness direction of FGM plate. The variational principle has been applied to derive the governing differential equation for the plates. Non-dimensional frequencies have been evaluated by considering the semi-analytical approach viz. Galerkin-Vlasov’s method. The accuracy of the preceding formulation has been validated through numerical examples consisting of constant thickness and tapered (variable thickness) plates. The findings obtained by this method are found to be in close agreement with the published results. Parametric studies are then explored for different geometric parameters like taper ratio and boundary conditions. It is deduced that the frequency parameter is maximum for S-FGM tapered plate as compared to E- and P-FGM tapered plate. Consequently, it is concluded that the S-FGM tapered plate is suitable for those engineering structures that are subjected to huge excitations to avoid resonance conditions. In addition, it is found that the taper ratio is significantly affected by the type of constraints on the edges of the tapered FGM plate. Some novel results for FGM plate with variable thickness are also computed that can be used as benchmark results for future reference.

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.
