AbstractThis paper reports an investigation on thermo-electro-mechanical vibration of graphene/piezoelectric graphene/piezoelectric/graphene sandwich nanobeams. Based on the nonlocal elasticity theory, Timoshenko beam theory and Hamilton's principles, the governing equations are developed and solved using generalized differential quadrature (GDQ) method. The effects of the nonlocal parameter, external electrical voltage, temperature change and axial force on vibration of graphene/piezoelectric/graphene sandwich nanobeams are examined. The performance and the accuracy of the presented model are highlighted through numerical examples with different boundary conditions. This study reports that the nonlocal parameter and thermo-electro-mechanical loadings have important effect on the natural frequencies and the deflection mode shapes of the graphene/piezoelectric/graphene sandwich nanobeam. The present work can serve as guideline for the design of a nanoscale graphene/piezoelectric/graphene beams based electromechanical resonator sensors.

The present research deals with the wave dispersion behavior of a rotating functionally graded material (FGMs) nanobeam applying nonlocal elasticity theory of Eringen. Material properties of rotating FG nanobeam are spatially graded according to a power-law model. The governing equations as functions of axial force due to centrifugal stiffening and displacements are obtained by employing Hamilton’s principle based on the Euler–Bernoulli beam theory. By using an analytical model, the dispersion relations of the FG nanobeam are derived by solving an eigenvalue problem. Numerical results clearly show that various parameters, such as angular velocity, gradient index, wave number and nonlocal parameter, are significantly effective to characteristics of wave propagations of rotating FG nanobeams. The results can be useful for next generation study and design of nanomachines, such as nanoturbines, nanoscale molecular bearings and nanogears, etc.

Comprehensive Study

In this paper, natural frequencies of nano-plates subjected to two-sided in-plane tension or compressive loads, based on Eringen nonlocal elasticity theory and displacement field of first-order shear deformation plate theory (FSDT), are investigated. By considering total rotational variables as the two rotations due to bending and shear, another formulation form of FSDT nano-plate is achieved, that can simultaneously consider classical plate theory (CLPT) and FSDT. In a comprehensive study, the effects of different parameters such as a nonlocal parameter, aspect ratio, thickness to length ratio, mode number, boundary conditions and also length of nano-plate are examined on the dimensionless natural frequency. The results show that simultaneously applying two-sided tension and compressive in-plane loads changes frequency in a manner which is different to one-directional loading.

AbstractIn this paper vibrations of the isotropic micro/nanoplates subjected to transverse and in-plane excitation are investigated. The governing equations of the problem are based on the von Kármán plate theory and Kirchhoff–Love hypothesis. The small-size effect is taken into account due to the nonlocal elasticity theory. The formulation of the problem is mixed and employs the Airy stress function. The two-mode approximation of the deflection and application of the Bubnov–Galerkin method reduces the governing system of equations to the system of ordinary differential equations. Varying the load parameters and the nonlocal parameter, the bifurcation analysis is performed. The bifurcations diagrams, the maximum Lyapunov exponents, phase portraits as well as Poincare maps are constructed based on the numerical simulations. It is shown that for some excitation conditions the chaotic motion may occur in the system. Also, the small-scale effects on the character of vibrating regimes are illustrated and discussed.

The existence of chaos in the lateral vibration of the carbon nanotube (CNT) can contribute to source of instability and inaccuracy within the nano mechanical systems. So, chaotic vibrations of a simply supported CNT which is subjected to a traversing harmonic force are studied in this paper. The model of the system is formulated by using nonlocal Euler–Bernoulli beam theory. The equation of motion is solved using the Rung–Kutta method. The effects of the nonlocal parameter, velocity and amplitude of the traversing harmonic force on the nonlinear dynamic response of the system are analyzed by the bifurcation diagrams, phase plane portrait, power spectra analysis, Poincaré map and the maximum Lyapunov exponent. The results indicate that the nonlocal parameter, velocity and amplitude of the traversing harmonic force have considerable effects on the bifurcation behavior and can be used as effective control parameters for avoiding chaos.

A NASTRAN finite element analysis of a free standing gas turbine blade is presented. The analysis entails calculation of the first four natural frequencies, mode shapes, and relative vibratory stresses, as well as deflections and stresses due to centrifugal loading. The stiffening effect of the centrifugal force field was accounted for by using NASTRAN’s differential stiffness option. Natural frequencies measured in a rotating test correlated well with computed results. Areas of maximum vibratory stress (fundamental mode) coincided with the three zones of crack initiation observed in a metallographic examination of a fatigue failure. Airfoil stress distributions were found to be significantly different from that predicted by generalized beam theory, especially near the airfoil-platform junction.

This study focused on the in-plane free vibration of uniform circular arches made of axially functionally graded (AFG) materials. Based on the dynamic equilibrium of an arch element, the governing equations for the free vibration of an AFG arch are derived in this study, where arbitrary functions for the Young’s modulus and mass density are acceptable. For the purpose of numerical analysis, quadratic polynomials for the Young’s modulus and mass density are considered. To calculate the natural frequencies and corresponding mode shapes, the governing equations are solved using the direct integral method enhanced by the trial eigenvalue method. For verification purposes, the predicted frequencies are compared to those obtained by the general purpose software ADINA. A parametric study of the end constraint, rotatory inertia, modular ratio, radius parameter, and subtended angle for the natural frequencies is conducted and the corresponding mode shapes are reported.

The Relationship

Abstract In this paper, an appropriate and accurate algorithm is pro- posed to diagnosis of lateral or vertical cracks on beam, based on beam natural frequencies. Clamped-free boundary conditions are assumed for the beam. The crack in beam is modelled by without mass torsion spring. Then, the relationship between the beam natural frequencies, location and stiffness of the crack is presented by using the Rayleigh quotient and the governing equation is solved by using generalized differential quadrature method (GDQM). If there is only one crack in the beam, then three natural frequencies are used as inputs to the algorithm and mode shapes corresponding to each the natural frequencies are calculated. Finally, type, location and severity of cracks in beam, are diagnosed.

Tip Mass

The potential of double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNTs) as a micromass sensor is explored. A nonlocal Timoshenko beam carrying a micromass at the free end of the inner tube is used to analyze the vibration of DWCNT-based mass sensor. The length of the outer tube is not equal to that of the inner tube, and the interaction between two tubes is governed by van der Waals force (vdW). Using the transfer function method, the natural frequencies of a nonlocal cantilever with a tip mass are computed. The effects of the attached mass and the outer-to-inner tube length ratio on the natural frequencies are discussed. When the nonlocal parameter is neglected, the frequencies reduce to the classical results, in agreement with those using the finite element method. The obtained results show that increasing the attached micromass decreases the natural frequency but increases frequency shift. The mass sensitivity improves for short DWCNTs used in mass sensor. The nonlocal Timoshenko beam model is more adequate than the nonlocal Euler-Bernoulli beam model for short DWCNT sensors. Obtained results are helpful to the design of DWCNT-based resonator as micromass sensor.

The natural frequencies of lateral vibration of a long drill string in static tension under its own weight are primarily the same as those of the equivalent catenary. These frequencies and the mode shapes are affected to a certain extent by the bending stiffness and to a greater extent by the static deflection curve due to lateral deflection of the bottom end. In this paper, the governing equations are derived and general solutions are given in an asymptotic expansion with the bending stiffness as the parameter. Specific numerical results are given in dimensionless form for the first three natural frequencies for a very wide range of horizontal tension and several appropriate values of bending stiffness for zero vertical static force at the bottom.
