Minimum Potential Energy Principle

A displacement based semi-analytical method is utilized to study non-linear free vibration and mode shapes of an exponential tapered axially functionally graded (AFG) beam resting on an elastic foundation. In the present study geometric nonlinearity induced through large displacement is taken care of by non-linear strain-displacement relations. The beam is considered to be slender to neglect the rotary inertia and shear deformation effects. In the present paper at first the static problem is solved through an iterative scheme using a relaxation parameter and later on the subsequent dynamic analysis is carried out as a standard eigen value problem. Energy principles are used for the formulation of both the problems. The static problem is solved by using minimum potential energy principle whereas in case of dynamic problem Hamilton’s principle is employed. The free vibrational frequencies are tabulated for exponential taper profile subject to various boundary conditions and foundation stiffness. The dynamic behaviour of the system is presented in the form of backbone curves in dimensionless frequency-amplitude plane and in some particular case the mode shape results are furnished.

Beams On Elastic Foundation

AbstractForced vibration of non-uniform axially functionally graded (AFG) Timoshenko beam on elastic foundation is performed under harmonic excitation. A linear elastic foundation is considered with three different classical boundary conditions. AFG materials are an advanced class of materials that have potential for application in various engineering fields. In the present work, variation of material properties along the longitudinal axis of the beam are considered according to power-law forms. Five values of material gradation parameter provides different functional variation and their effect on the frequency response of the system is studied. The present approximate method is displacement based and Von-Karman type of geometric nonlinearity is considered with rotational component to incorporate transverse shear. Hamilton’s principle is used to derive nonlinear set of governing equation and Broyden method is implemented to solve the nonlinear equations numerically. The results are successfully validated with previously published article. Frequency vs. amplitude curve corresponding to different combinations of system parameters are presented and are capable of serving as benchmark results. A separate free vibration analysis is undertaken to include backbone curves with the frequency response curves in the non-dimensional plane.

Gradient Parameter

The thermal problem of functionally graded materials (FGM) under linear heat source is studied by a hybrid numerical method. The accuracy of the analytical method and the efficiency of the finite element method are taken into account. The volume fraction of FGM in the thickness direction can be changed by changing the gradient parameters. Based on the weighted residual method, the heat conduction equation under the third boundary condition is established. The temperature distribution of FGM under the action of linear heat source is obtained by Fourier transform. The results show that the closer to the heat source it is, the greater the influence of the heat source is and the influence of the heat source is local. The temperature change trend of the observation points is consistent with the heat source, showing a linear change. The results also show that the higher the value of gradient parameter is, the higher the temperature of location point is. The temperature distribution of observation points is positively correlated with gradient parameter. When the gradient parameter value exceeds a certain value, it has a little effect on the temperature change in the model and the heat conduction in the model tends to be pure metal heat conduction, the optimal gradient parameters combined the thermal insulation property of ceramics and the high strength toughness of metals are obtained.
