This work presents an investigation on the free vibration behavior of rotating pre-twisted functionally graded graphene platelets reinforced composite (FG-GPLRC) laminated blades/beams with an attached point mass. The considered beams are constituted of [Formula: see text] layers which are bonded perfectly and made of a mixture of isotropic polymer matrix and graphene platelets (GPLs). The weight fraction of GPLs changes in a layer-wise manner. The effective material properties of FG-GPLRC layers are computed by using the modified Halpin-Tsai model together with rule of mixture. The free vibration eigenvalue equations are developed based on the Reddy’s third-order shear deformation theory (TSDT) using the Chebyshev–Ritz method under different boundary conditions. After validating the approach, the influences of the GPLs distribution pattern, GPLs weight fraction, angular velocity, the variation of the angle of twist along the beam axis, the ratio of attached mass to the beam mass, boundary conditions, position of attached mass, and geometry on the vibration behavior are investigated. The findings demonstrate that the natural frequencies of the rotating pre-twisted FG-GPLRC laminated beams significantly increases by adding a very small amount of GPLs into polymer matrix. It is shown that placing more GPLs near the top and bottom surfaces of the pre-twisted beam is an effective way to strengthen the pre-twisted beam stiffness and increase the natural frequencies.

Graphene Platelets

Plates are commonly used in many engineering disciplines, including aerospace. With the continuous improvement in the capacity of high value-added airplanes, large transport aircrafts, and fighter planes that have high strength, high toughness, and corrosion resistance have gradually become the development direction of airplane plate structure production and research. The strength and stability of metal plate structures can be improved by adding reinforced materials. This paper studies graphene platelets (GPLs) reinforced with a free vibration porous composite plate. The porous plate is constructed with a multi-layer model in a metal matrix containing uniform or non-uniformly distributed open-cell internal pores. Considering the random and directional arrangement of graphene platelets in the matrix, the elastic modulus of graphene composites was estimated using the Halpin–Tsai micromechanical model, and the vibration frequencies of graphene composite were calculated using the differential quadrature method. The effects of the total number of layers, GPL distribution pattern, porosity coefficient, GPL weight fraction, and boundary conditions on the free vibration frequency of GPLs reinforced porous composite plates are studied, and the accuracy of the conclusions are verified by the finite element software.

Accuracy Study

An isogeometric free vibration analysis is presented for curved Euler–Bernoulli beams, where the theoretical study of frequency accuracy is particularly emphasized. Firstly, the isogeometric formulation for general curved Euler–Bernoulli beams is elaborated, which fully takes the advantages of geometry exactness and basis function smoothness provided by isogeometric analysis. Subsequently, in order to enable an analytical frequency accuracy study, the general curved beam formulation is particularized to the circular arch problem with constant radius. Under this circumstance, explicit mass and stiffness matrices are derived for quadratic and cubic isogeometric formulations. Accordingly, the coupled stencil equations associated with the axial and deflectional displacements of circular arches are established. By further invoking the harmonic wave assumption, a frequency accuracy measure is rationally attained for isogeometric free analysis of curved Euler–Bernoulli beams, which theoretically reveals that the isogeometric curved beam formulation with [Formula: see text]th degree basis functions is [Formula: see text]th order accurate regarding the frequency computation. Numerical results well confirm the proposed theoretical convergence rates for both circular arches and general curved beams.
