This paper studies the nonlinear dynamic responses of graphene-reinforced composite (GRC) beams in a thermal environment. It is assumed that a laminated beam rests on a Pasternak foundation with viscosity and consists of GRC layers with various volume fractions of graphene reinforcement to construct a functionally graded (FG) pattern along the transverse direction of the beam. An extended Halpin–Tsai model which is calibrated against the results from molecular dynamics (MD) simulations is used to evaluate the material properties of GRC layers. The mechanical model of the beam is on the establishment of a third-order shear deformation beam theory and includes the von-Kármán nonlinearity effect. The model also considers the foundation support and the temperature variation. The two-step perturbation technique is first applied to solve the beam motion equations and to derive the nonlinear dynamic load–deflection equation of the beam. Then a Runge–Kutta numerical method is applied and the solutions for this nonlinear equation are obtained. The influence of FG patterns, visco-elastic foundation, ambient temperature and applied load on transient response behaviors of simply supported FG-GRC laminated beams is revealed and examined in detail.

Used the Reddy's higher-order shear deformation plate theory, the nonlinear dynamic analysis and vibration of imperfect functionally graded sandwich plates in thermal environment with piezoelectric actuators (PFGM) on elastic foundations subjected to a combination of electrical, damping loadings and temperature are investigated in this article. One of the salient features of this work is the consideration of temperature on the piezoelectric layer, and the material properties of the PFGM sandwich plates are assumed to be temperature-dependent. The governing equations are established based on the stress function, the Galerkin method, and the Runge–Kutta method. In the numerical results, the effects of geometrical parameters; material properties; imperfections; elastic foundations; electrical, thermal, and damping loads on the vibration and nonlinear dynamic response of the PFGM sandwich plates are discussed. The obtained natural frequencies are verified with the known results in the literature.

Employing higher order shear deformation theory, geometric nonlinear theory, and Hamilton’s principle, a set of nonlinear governing equations for the functionally graded beams with surface-bonded piezoelectric layers is derived. Then, the negative velocity feedback algorithm coupling the direct and inverse piezoelectric effect is used to control the piezoelectric functionally graded beams actively. Using the finite difference method and Newmark method synthetically, the numerical solutions for the nonlinear dynamic equations of functionally graded beams with piezoelectric patches are obtained iteratively. In the numerical examples, the effects of the volume fraction exponent on the nonlinear dynamic responses and amplitude–frequency curves are investigated, and the active control responses of the functionally graded beams with piezoelectric layers under different control gains and volume fraction exponents are analyzed. Some meaningful solutions have been presented.

Based on the classical shell theory, taking into account the nonlinear geometry of von Karman-Donnell, this article deals with the nonlinear dynamic analysis of Functionally Graded Material (Sandwich-FGM) cylindrical shells containing fluid under mechanical and thermal loads. By using the Galerkin method, the nonlinear dynamic equation is transformed into nonlinear differential equation in terms of time. The investigation of nonlinear dynamic response of sandwich-FGM cylindrical shells containing fluid is established. Numerical results show effect of temperature, fluid, geometric parameters of structure and material parameters (coefficient k) on the dynamic response of structure.

This paper presents an analytical approach to investigate the nonlinear buckling of imperfect eccentrically stiffened functionally graded thin circular cylindrical shells subjected to axial compression and surrounded by an elastic foundation. Based on the classical thin shell theory with the geometrical nonlinearity in von Karman-Donnell sense, initial geometrical imperfection, the smeared stiffeners technique and Pasternak’s two-parameter elastic foundation, the governing equations of eccentrically stiffened functionally graded cylindrical shells are derived. The functionally graded cylindrical shells are reinforced by homogeneous ring and stringer stiffener system on internal and (or) external surface. The resulting equations are solved by the Galerkin method to obtain the explicit expression of static critical buckling load, post-buckling load-deflection curve and nonlinear dynamic motion equation. The nonlinear dynamic responses are found by using fourth order Runge-Kutta method. The dynamic critical buckling loads of shells are considered for step loading of infinite duration and linear-time compression. The obtained results show the effects of foundation, stiffeners and input factors on the nonlinear buckling behavior of these structures.

This paper is presented to solve the nonlinear dynamic buckling of sandwich functionally graded circular cylinder shells filled with fluid. Governing equations are derived using the classical shell theory and the geometrical nonlinearity in von Karman-Donnell sense is taken into account. Solutions of the problem are established by using Galerkin’s method and Rung-Kutta method. Effects of thermal environment, parameters of geometric, volume fraction index k and fluid on dynamic responses of shells are investigated.
