Eigenvalue Method

In this paper, a finite elment-eigenvalue method is formulated to solve the finite element models of time dependent temperature field problems in non-homogeneous materials such as functionally graded materials (FGMs). The method formulates an eigenvalue problem from the original finite element model and proceeds to calculate the associated eigenvectors from which the solution can be obtained. The results obtained highly accurate and are exponential functions of time which when compared with the exact solution tended fast to the steady state solution.

The h-p version of the finite element method (FEM) is considered to determine the transient temperature distribution in functionally graded materials (FGM). The h-p version may be regarded as the marriage of conventional h-version and p-version. The graded Fourier p-element is used to set up the two-dimensional heat conduction equations. The temperature is formulated in terms of linear shape functions used generally in FEM plus a variable number of trigonometric shape functions representing the internal degrees of freedom (DOF). In the graded Fourier p-element, the function of the thermal conductivity is computed exactly within the conductance matrix and thus overcomes the computational errors caused by the space discretization introduced by the FEM. Explicit and easily programmed trigonometric enriched capacitance, conductance matrices and heat load vectors are derived for plates and cylinders by using symbolic computation. The convergence properties of the h-p version proposed and the results of the numbers of test problems are in good agreement with the analytical solutions. Also, the effect of the non-homogeneity of the FGM on the temperature distribution is considered.

In the present article, according to the nonlocal elasticity theory within the framework of the third-order shear deformable plate assumption, the theoretical analysis of thermomechanical vibration response of magneto-electro-thermo-elastic nanoplate made of functionally graded materials resting on the visco-Pasternak medium is carried out. The simply supported magneto-electro-thermo-elastic nanoplate is supposed to subject to initial external electric, magnetic potentials, and temperature environment. The material characteristics of magneto-electro-thermo-elastic nanoplate are assumed to be variable continuously across the thickness direction based upon power law distribution. Hamilton’s principle is utilized to achieve the partial differential equations and corresponding boundary conditions. The equilibrium equations are solved analytically to determine the complex eigenfrequency using Navier’s approach which satisfies the simply supported boundary conditions. Numerical studies are performed to illustrate the dependency of the natural frequency of the system on the damping coefficient of the visco-Pasternak medium, nonlocal parameter, aspect ratio, temperature change, volume fraction index of functionally graded material, initial external electric voltage, initial external magnetic potential, and plate thickness. It is clearly indicated that these factors have highly significant impacts on the dynamic behavior of the proposed system.

This paper considers the problem of modal analysis and finding the closed-form solution to free vibrations of planar serial frame structures composed of Euler-Bernoulli beams of variable cross-sectional geometric characteristics in the case of axially functionally graded materials. Each of these beams is performing coupled axial and bending vibrations, where coupling occurs due to the boundary conditions at their joints. The numerical procedure for solving the system of partial differential equations, after the separation of variables, is reduced to solving the two-point boundary value problem of ordinary linear differential equations with nonlinear coefficients and linear boundary conditions. In this case, it is possible to transfer the boundary conditions and reduce the problem to the Cauchy initial value problem. Also, it is possible to analyze the influence of different parameters on the structure dynamic behavior. The method is applicable in the case of different boundary conditions at the right and left ends of such structures, as illustrated by an appropriate numerical example.

Euler Bernoulli Beam

The buckling and free vibration of a Euler–Bernoulli beam composed of two-directional functionally graded materials (FGMs) in thermal environment are analyzed. The material properties and temperature distributions are considered to be continuously varied along both axial and thickness directions. Such two-directional FGMs provide the basis of a promising strategy to tune the dynamic behavior of a structure in a controlled fashion, achieving tunable response as desired. The dynamic equation of the beam and relevant boundary conditions are derived based on Hamilton’s principle. The generalized differential quadrature method is used for determining the exact buckling configuration and the natural frequencies of the beam with different boundary conditions. Numerical results are presented to examine the effects of material gradations on the critical buckling temperature. It is concluded that both temperature change and material properties have significant influences on the natural frequency, which suggests that it is possible to tailor or tune the dynamic behaviors of a beam by using man-made FGMs in a complex environment.
