The problem of geometrically nonlinear free vibration of a clamped-clamped functionally graded beam containing an open edge crack in its center is studied in this paper. The study is based on Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and Von Karman geometric nonlinearity assumptions. The cracked section is modeled by an elastic spring connecting two intact segments of the beam. It is assumed that material properties of the functionally graded composites are graded in the thickness direction and estimated through the rule of mixture. The homogenisation method is used to reduce the problem to that of isotropic homogeneous cracked beam. Direct iterative method is employed for solving the eigenvalue equation for governing the frequency nonlinear vibration, in order to show the effect of the crack depth and the influences of the volume fraction on the dynamic response.

In this study, glass-filled epoxy functionally graded material (FGM) was prepared by adopting the hand lay-up method. The vertical gravity casting was used to produce a continuous variation in elastic properties. A 30 % volume fraction of glass ingredients that have mean diameter 90 μm was spread in epoxy resin (ρ = 1050 kg/m3). The mechanical properties of FGM were evaluated according to ASTM D638. Experimental results showed that a gradually relationship between Young’s modulus and volume fraction of glass particles, where the value of Young’s modulus at high concentration of glass particles was greater than that at low concentration, while the value of Poisson’s ratio at high concentration of glass particles was lower than that at low concentration. The manufacture of this FG beam is particularly important and useful in order to benefit from it in the field of various fracture tests under dynamic or cyclic loads.

The objective of this paper is to investigate the large deflection of a slender functionally graded beam under the transverse loading. Firstly, by modeling the functionally graded beam as a layered structure with graded yield strength, a unified yield criterion for a functionally graded metallic beam is established. Based on the proposed yielding criteria, analytical solutions (AS) for the large deflections of fully clamped functionally graded beams subjected to transverse loading are formulated. Comparisons between the present solutions with numerical results are made and good agreements are found. The effects of gradient profile and gradient intensity factor on the large deflections of functionally graded beams are discussed in detail. The reliability of the present analytical model is demonstrated, and the larger the gradient variation ratio near the loading surface is, the more accurate the layer-graded beam model will be.
