Forced Vibration Analysis

This paper carries out free and forced vibration analysis of piezoelectric FGM plates resting on two-parameter elastic foundations placed in thermal environments. By employing the third-order shear deformation theory and the finite element method, this work establishes free and forced vibration equations of piezoelectric FGM plates, where the materials are assumed to be varied in the thickness directions, and the mechanical properties depend on the temperature. Then, comparative examples are conducted to verify the proposed theory and mathematical model, and the results of this study and other methods meet a very good agreement. Then, effects of geometrical and material properties such as the feedback coefficient, voltage, volume fraction index, temperature as well as the parameters of elastic foundations on free and forced vibration of the plates are investigated, and the conclusions are given out to provide the effective direction for the design and practical use of these structures.

This paper carries out forced vibration analysis of graphene nanoplatelet-reinforced composite laminated shells in thermal environments by employing the finite element method (FEM). Material properties including elastic modulus, specific gravity, and Poisson’s ratio are determined according to the Halpin–Tsai model. The first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT), which is based on the 8-node isoparametric element to establish the oscillation equation of shell structure, is employed in this work. We then code the computing program in the MATLAB application and examine the verification of convergence rate and reliability of the program by comparing the data of present work with those of other exact solutions. The effects of both geometric parameters and mechanical properties of materials on the forced vibration of the structure are investigated.

Cylindrical Panels

This study follows an analytical approach to investigate the nonlinear dynamic response and vibration of eccentrically stiffened sandwich functionally graded material (FGM) cylindrical panels with metal–ceramic layers on elastic foundations in thermal environments. It is assumed that the FGM cylindrical panel is reinforced by the eccentrically longitudinal and transversal stiffeners and subjected to mechanical and thermal loads. The material properties are assumed to be temperature dependent and graded in the thickness direction according to a simple power law distribution. Based on the Reddy’s third-order shear deformation shell theory, the motion and compatibility equations are derived taking into account geometrical nonlinearity and Pasternak-type elastic foundations. The outstanding feature of this study is that both FGM cylindrical panel and stiffeners are assumed to be deformed in the presence of temperature. Explicit relation of deflection–time curves and frequencies of FGM cylindrical panel are determined by applying stress function, Galerkin method and fourth-order Runge-Kutta method. The influences of material and geometrical parameters, elastic foundations and stiffeners on the nonlinear dynamic and vibration of the sandwich FGM panels are discussed in detail. The obtained results are validated by comparing with other results in the literature.

This paper presents an analytical approach to investigate the nonlinear axisymmetric response of moderately thick FGM sandwich shallow spherical shells resting on elastic foundations, exposed to thermal environments and subjected to uniform external pressure. Material properties are assumed to be temperature independent, and effective properties of FGM layer are graded in the thickness direction according to a simple power law distribution in terms of the volume fractions of the constituents. Formulations are based on first-order shear deformation shell theory taking geometrical nonlinearity, initial geometrical imperfection, Pasternak type elastic foundations and various degree of tangential constraint of boundary edge into consideration. Approximate solutions are assumed to satisfy clamped boundary condition and Galerkin method is applied to derive closed-form expressions of critical buckling loads and nonlinear load-deflection relation. Effects of geometrical parameters, thickness of face sheets, foundation stiffness, imperfection, thermal environments and degree of tangential edge constraints on the nonlinear stability of FGM sandwich shallow spherical shells are analyzed and discussed.

Abstract Nonlinear stability of nanocomposite spherical and cylindrical panels reinforced by carbon nanotubes (CNTs), resting on elastic foundations and subjected to uniform external pressure in thermal environments is investigated in this paper. CNTs are embedded into matrix phase through uniform distribution (UD) or functionally graded (FG) distribution, and effective properties of CNT-reinforced composite are estimated through an extended rule of mixture. Governing equations are based on classical shell theory taking geometrical nonlinearity, initial geometrical imperfection and panel-foundation interaction into consideration. Approximate solutions of deflection and stress functions are assumed to satisfy simply supported boundary conditions and Galerkin method is applied to obtain nonlinear load-deflection relation. Numerical examples show the effects of volume fraction and distribution type of CNTs, in-plane condition of edges, curvature of panel, thermal environments, elastic foundations and imperfection size on the nonlinear response and snap-through instability of the curved panels. The present study reveals that efficiency of CNT distribution type depends on curvature of panel and in-plane behavior of boundary edges, and bifurcation type buckling response of pressure-loaded panels may occur at elevated temperature.
