The natural vibration behavior of axially functionally graded (AFG) double nanobeams is studied based on the Euler–Bernoulli beam and Eringen’s non-local elasticity theory. The double nanobeams are continuously connected by a layer of linear springs. The oscillatory differential equation of motion is established using the Hamilton’s principle and the constitutive relations. The Chebyshev spectral collocation method (CSCM) is used to transform the coupled governing differential equations of motion into algebraic equations. The discretized boundary conditions are used to modify the Chebyshev differentiation matrices, and the system of equations is put in the matrix-vector form. Then, the dimensionless transverse frequencies and the mode shapes are obtained by solving the standard eigenvalue problem. The effects of the coupling springs, Winkler stiffness, the shear stiffness parameter, the breadth and taper ratios, the small-scale parameter, and the boundary conditions on the natural transverse frequencies are carried out. Several numerical examples were conducted, and the authors believe that the results may be interesting in designing and analyzing double and multiple one-dimensional nano structures.

In this study, the buckling of functionally graded (FG) nanoporous metal foam nanoplates is investigated by combining the refined plate theory with the non-local elasticity theory. The refined plate theory takes into account transverse shear strains which vary quadratically through the thickness without considering the shear correction factor. Based on Eringen’s non-local differential constitutive relations, the equations of motion are derived from Hamilton’s principle. The analytical solutions for the buckling of FG nanoporous metal foam nanoplates are obtained via Navier’s method. Moreover, the effects of porosity distributions, porosity coefficient, small scale parameter, axial compression ratio, mode number, aspect ratio and length-to-thickness ratio on the buckling loads are discussed. In order to verify the validity of present analysis, the analytical results have been compared with other previous studies.

The aim of this article is to find an exact analytical solution for free vibration characteristics of thin functionally graded rectangular plates with different boundary conditions. The governing equations of motion are obtained based on the classical plate theory. Using an analytical method, three partial differential equations of motion are reformulated into two new decoupled equations. Based on the Navier solution, a closed-form solution is presented for natural frequencies of functionally graded simply supported rectangular plates. Then, considering Levy-type solution, natural frequencies of functionally graded plates are presented for various boundary conditions. Three mode shapes of a functionally graded rectangular plate are also presented for different boundary conditions. In addition, the effects of aspect ratio, thickness—length ratio, power law index, and boundary conditions on the vibration characteristics of functionally graded rectangular plates are discussed in details. Finally, it has been shown that the effects of in-plane displacements on natural frequencies of functionally graded plates under different boundary conditions have been studied.

The vibration characteristics of a nonuniform, flexible and free-flying slender rocket experiencing constant thrust is investigated. The rocket is idealized as a classic nonuniform beam with a constant one-dimensional follower force and with free-free boundary conditions. The equations of motion are derived by applying the extended Hamilton’s principle for non-conservative systems. Natural frequencies and associated mode shapes of the rocket are determined using the relatively efficient and accurate Adomian modified decomposition method (AMDM) with the solutions obtained by solving a set of algebraic equations with only three unknown parameters. The method can easily be extended to obtain approximate solutions to vibration problems for any type of nonuniform beam.

Abstract The shear surface wave at the free traction surface of half- infinite functionally graded magneto-electro-elastic material with initial stress is investigated. The material parameters are assumed to vary ex- ponentially along the thickness direction, only. The velocity equations of shear surface wave are derived on the electrically or magnetically open circuit and short circuit boundary conditions, based on the equations of motion of the graded magneto-electro-elastic material with the initial stresses and the free traction boundary conditions. The dispersive curves are obtained numerically and the influences of the initial stresses and the material gradient index on the dispersive curves are discussed. The investigation provides a basis for the development of new functionally graded magneto-electro-elastic surface wave devices.

Simple approximate formulas for the natural frequencies of circular cylindrical shells are presented for modes in which transverse deflection dominates. Based on the Donnell-Mushtari thin shell theory the equations of motion of the circular cylindrical shell are introduced, using Vlasov assumptions and Fourier series for the circumferential direction, an exact solution in the axial direction is obtained. To improve the results assumptions of Vlasov’s semimomentless theory are enhanced, i.e. we have used only the hypothesis of middle surface inextensibility to obtain a solution in axial direction. Nonlinear characteristic equations and natural mode shapes, are derived for all type of boundary conditions. Good agreement with experimental data and FEM is shown and advantage over the existing formulas for a variety of boundary conditions is presented.

In this article, a first-order shear deformable model is expanded based on the nonlocal strain gradient theory to vibration analysis of smart nanostructures under different boundary conditions. The governing equations of motion of rotating magneto-viscoelastic functionally graded cylindrical nanoshell in the magnetic field and corresponding boundary conditions are obtained using Hamilton’s principle. To discretize the equations of motion, the generalized differential quadrature method is applied. The aim of this work is to investigate the effects of the temperature changes, nonlocal parameter, material length scale, viscoelastic coefficient, various boundary conditions, and the rotational speed of this smart structure on natural frequencies of rotating cylindrical nanoshell made of magneto-viscoelastic functionally graded material.

A layerwise-differential quadrature method (LW-DQM) is developed for the vibration analysis of a stiffened laminated conical shell. The circumferential stiffeners (rings) and meridional stiffeners (stringers) are treated as discrete elements. The motion equations are derived by applying the Hamilton’s principle. In order to accurately account for the thickness effects and the displacement field of stiffeners, the layerwise theory is used to discretize the equations of motion and the related boundary conditions through the thickness. Then, the equations of motion as well as the boundary condition equations are transformed into a set of algebraic equations applying the DQM in the meridional direction. The advantage of the proposed model is its applicability to thin and thick unstiffened and stiffened shells with arbitrary boundary conditions. In addition, the axial load and external pressure is applied to the shell as a ratio of the global buckling load and pressure. This study demonstrates the accuracy, stability, and the fast rate of convergence of the present method, for the buckling and vibration analyses of stiffened conical shells. The presented results are compared with those of other shell theories and a special case where the angle of conical shell approaches zero, i.e. a cylindrical shell, and excellent agreements are achieved.

The vibration analysis of an annular plate made up of functionally graded magneto-electro-elastic materials subjected to multi physical loads is presented. The plate is in thermal environment and temperature is distributed non-uniformly in its thickness direction. In addition, the plate is assumed moderately thick, the material properties vary through the thickness, and the exact neutral surface position is determined and took into account. According to Hamilton’s principle and the first-order shear deformation theory, the governing motion equations are extracted. Numerical results for various boundary conditions are obtained via the generalized differential quadrature method and are validated in simpler states with those of the literature. The effects of different parameters such as material property gradient index, multi physical loads, temperature variations, boundary conditions and geometric specifications of the plate on the natural frequencies and mode shapes are investigated. Temperature changes have little effect on the natural frequencies and the effect of electric potential on them is opposite of magnetic one. In other words, by increasing the magnetic potential, the rigidity of the plate increases too, and the frequency increases. The results of this study are useful to design more efficient sensors and actuators used in the smart or intelligent structures.

In the present study, a nonlocal hyperbolic shear deformation theory is developed for the static flexure, buckling and free vibration analysis of nanobeams using the nonlocal differential constitutive relations of Eringen. The theory, which does not require shear correction factor, accounts for both small scale effects and hyperbolic variation of shear strains and consequently shear stresses through the thickness of the nanobeam. The equations of motion are derived from Hamilton's principle. Analytical solutions for the deflection, buckling load and natural frequency are presented for a simply supported nanobeam, and the obtained results are compared with those predicted by the nonlocal Timoshenko beam theory and Reddy beam theories. Present solutions can be used for the static and dynamic analyses of single-walled carbon nanotubes.

An analysis on nonlinear dynamic of a cantilevered functionally graded materials (FGM) plate which subjected to the transverse excitation in the uniform thermal environment is presented for the first time. Materials properties of the constituents are graded in the thickness direction according to a power-law distribution and assumed to be temperature dependent. In the framework of the Third-order shear deformation plate theory, the nonlinear governing equations of motion for the functionally graded materials plate are derived by using the Hamilton’s principle. For cantilever rectangular plate, the first two vibration mode shapes that satisfy the boundary conditions is given. The Galerkin’s method is utilized to discretize the governing equations of motion to a two-degree-of-freedom nonlinear system under combined thermal and external excitations. By using the numerical method, the two-degree-of-freedom nonlinear system is analyzed to find the nonlinear responses of the cantilever FGMs plate. The influences of the thermal environments on the nonlinear dynamic response of the cantilevered FGM plate are discussed in detail through a parametric study.
