AbstractThe present study deals with the free torsional vibration of a composite conical shell made of a polymeric matrix reinforced with carbon nanotubes (CNTs). Distribution of CNTs across the thickness of the conical shell may be uniform or functionally graded. Five different cases of functionally graded reinforcements are considered. First-order shear deformable shell theory compatible with the Donnell kinematic assumptions is used to establish the motion equations of the shell. These equations are two coupled equations which should be treated as an eigenvalue problem. The generalized differential quadrature method is used to obtain a numerical solution for the torsional frequency parameters and the associated mode shapes of the shell. After validating the results of this study for the cases of isotropic homogeneous cone and annular plates, parametric studies are carried out to analyze the influences of geometrical characteristics of the shell, volume fraction of CNTs, and grading profile of the CNTs. It is shown that volume fraction of CNTs is an important factor with regard to torsional frequencies of the shell; however, grading profile does not change the torsional frequencies significantly.

Bamboo poles, and other one-dimensional thin-walled structures are usually loaded under compression, which may also be subject to bending arising from eccentric loading. Many of these structures contain diaphragms or circumferential stiffeners to prevent cross-sectional distortions and so enhance overall load-carrying response. Such hierarchical structures can compartmentalize buckling to local regions in addition to withstanding global buckling phenomena. Predicting the buckling mode shapes of such structures for a range of geometric parameters is challenging due to the interaction of these global and local modes. Abaqus finite element software is used to model thousands of circular hollow tubes with random geometric parameters such that the ratios of radius to periodic length range from 1/3-1/7, the ratio of wall thickness to radius varies from 1/4-1/10. The material used in this study is a type of bamboo, where the Young’s and shear moduli are point-wise orthotropic and gradually increase in magnitude in the radial direction. Under eccentric loads with varying eccentricity, the structures can buckle into a global mode or local modes within an internode, i.e. periodic unit. Moreover, the local modes may contain only one wave or multiple waves in the circumferential direction. As expected, numerical results show that the global mode is more likely to occur in small and thick tubes, whereas the local modes are observed in larger tubes with a smaller number of circumferential waves present in thicker walls. Also, greater eccentricity pushes the local mode domains towards smaller tubes. An efficient classification method is developed herein to identify the domains of each mode shape in terms of radius, wall thickness and eccentricity. Based on linear discriminant analysis, explicit boundary surfaces for the three domains are defined for the obtained data, which can help designers in predicting the mode shapes of tubular structures under axial bending.

Engineering Practice

Rotating structures can be easily encountered in engineering practice such as turbines, helicopter propellers, railroad tracks in turning positions, and so on. In such cases, it can be seen as a moving beam that rotates around a fixed axis. These structures commonly operate in hot weather; as a result, the arising temperature significantly changes their mechanical response, so studying the mechanical behavior of these structures in a temperature environment has great implications for design and use in practice. This work is the first exploration using the new shear deformation theory-type hyperbolic sine functions to carry out the free vibration analysis of the rotating functionally graded graphene beam resting on the elastic foundation taking into account the effects of both temperature and the initial geometrical imperfection. Equations for determining the fundamental frequencies as well as the vibration mode shapes of the beam are established, as mentioned, by the finite element method. The beam material is reinforced with graphene platelets (GPLs) with three types of GPL distribution ratios. The numerical results show numerous new points that have not been published before, especially the influence of the rotational speed, temperature, and material distribution on the free vibration response of the structure.

Free vibration of FGM Timoshenko beam is investigated on the base of the power law distribution of FGM. Taking into account the actual position of neutral plane enables to obtain general condition for uncoupling of axial and flexural vibrations in FGM beam. This condition defines a class of functionally graded beams for which axial and flexural vibrations are completely uncoupled likely to the homogeneous beams. Natural frequencies and mode shapes of uncoupled flexural vibration of beams from the class are examined in dependence on material parameters and slendernes

This study focused on the in-plane free vibration of uniform circular arches made of axially functionally graded (AFG) materials. Based on the dynamic equilibrium of an arch element, the governing equations for the free vibration of an AFG arch are derived in this study, where arbitrary functions for the Young’s modulus and mass density are acceptable. For the purpose of numerical analysis, quadratic polynomials for the Young’s modulus and mass density are considered. To calculate the natural frequencies and corresponding mode shapes, the governing equations are solved using the direct integral method enhanced by the trial eigenvalue method. For verification purposes, the predicted frequencies are compared to those obtained by the general purpose software ADINA. A parametric study of the end constraint, rotatory inertia, modular ratio, radius parameter, and subtended angle for the natural frequencies is conducted and the corresponding mode shapes are reported.

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.

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.

The Galerkin Method

In this study, the vibration characteristics of a functionally graded rotating hollow disk with the circumferential surface crack are investigated. In order to simplify the problem, the circumferential crack of the rotating hollow disk is modeled as circumferential step indentation. The Galerkin Method is used to obtain the radial and hoop stresses for disks with clamped edge at the inner radius. Finite Difference scheme is adopted to solve the partial differential equation of motion of the rotating hollow disk to obtain the mode shapes and the Campbell Diagram. The first critical speed, which is one of the important parameters limiting the performance of the rotating disk, was obtained from the Campbell Diagram. The results show that the crack will reduce the stiffness and the critical speed of the rotating disk. Critical speed increases with decreasing the distance from inner radius to the crack and decreases with increasing crack depth. Furthermore, considering the functionally graded disk, the distribution of elastic modulus does not change significantly the effects of circumferential cracks on the vibration characteristics of the rotating.

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.
