AbstractA composite beam with single delamination under the action of moving load has been modeled accounting for the Poisson’s effect, shear deformation, and rotary inertia. The existence of the delamination changes the stiffness of the structure, and this affects the dynamic response of the structure. We have used a constrained mode to simulate the behavior between the delaminated surfaces. Based on this mode, eigensolution technique is used to obtain the natural frequencies and their corresponding mode shapes for the delaminated beam. Then, the Ritz method is adopted to derive the dynamic response of the beam subjected to a moving load. The obtained results for the free and forced vibrations of beams are verified against reported similar results in the literature. Moreover, the maximum dynamic response of such beam is compared with an intact beam. The effects of different parameters such as the size, depth, and spanwise location of the delamination, the load velocity, the different ply configurations, and the Poisson’s effect on the dynamic response of the beam are studied.

In this paper, free and forced vibrations of symmetric laminated composite plates are studied analytically by using a perturbation method where the analytical results for transverse displacement are compared with the numerical results. The external force is taken to be harmonic in time and having uniform amplitude.
