Abstract This paper discusses linear in-plane free vibration of a homogeneous, isotropic, linear visco-elastic rotating disk. Two-dimensional theory of elastico-dynamic is employed to develop the general governing equations of motion. In this analysis, a constant angular velocity is assumed. The wave equations and Bessel Functions of the first and second kind are utilized to obtain the natural frequencies. Natural frequencies are found for a number of modes with several clamping ratios. These natural frequencies were compared with the available established results. Also, the influence of rotational speed and clamping ratio on the natural frequencies and the mode shapes of vibration are determined. The analysis provides information about the elastic stability of the rotating disks for several modes of vibration.

The in-plane free vibration in an elastic, isotropic, rotating annular disc is investigated on the basis of the two-dimensional linear plane stress theory of elasticity. An analytical solution of the governing equations is developed. Accurate natural frequencies and mode shapes for several modes at different radius ratios and boundary conditions are determined. The computed results demonstrate the influence of rotational speed and radius ratio on the natural frequencies and elastic stability of the rotating discs for several modes. Comparisons of the results with previously established results indicate excellent agreement.

The linear in-plane free vibration of a thin, homogeneous, viscoelastic, rotating annular disk is investigated. In the development of an analytical solution, two dimensional elastodynamic theory is employed and the viscoelastic material for the medium is allowed by assuming complex elastic moduli. The general governing equations of motion are derived by implementing plane stress theory. Natural frequencies are computed for several modes at specific radius ratios with fixed-free boundary conditions and modal loss factors for different damping ratios are determined. The computed results were compared to previously established results. It was observed that the effects of rotational speed and hysteretic damping ratio on natural frequency and elastic stability of the rotating disks were related to the mode of vibration and type of circumferential wave occurring.

In this study, free vibration responses of a carbon nanotube reinforced composite beam are investigated. The governing differential equations of motion of a carbon nanotube (CNT) reinforced composite beam are presented in finite element formulation. The validity of the developed formulation is demonstrated by comparing the natural frequencies evaluated using present FEM with those of available literature. Various parametric studies are also performed to investigate the effect of aspect ratio and percentage of CNT content and boundary conditions on natural frequencies and mode shapes of a carbon nanotube reinforced composite beam. It is shown that the addition of carbon nanotube in fiber reinforced composite beam increases the stiffness of the structure and consequently increases the natural frequencies and alter the mode shapes.

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.

An analytical method is adopted to determine modal characteristics of non-linear spinning discs. The disc is assumed to be isotropic and rotating under steady-state conditions. The effects of amplitude and rotating speed on natural frequencies are determined. The developed procedure is also capable of analysing natural frequencies of linear free vibration, which is independent of amplitude. Attention is confined to determine natural frequencies, mode shapes, stress distributions, and critical speeds for different numbers of nodal diameters. The developed procedure does not consider modes of vibration corresponding to nodal circles. Validity of this procedure is verified by comparing some of the computed results with those established for certain cases.

The vibration characteristics of a circumferentially cracked rotating disk are investigated. The disk is assumed to be axisymmetric, flexible and clamped at the center. The crack increases the local flexibility of the disk at the crack location and is modeled as linear and torsional springs, connecting the two segments of the disk. The spring constants are evaluated by considering crack opening displacements due to bending moment and shear force at the crack location. The equations of motion of two segments of the disk, for disk operating in vacuum as well as subjected to shear fluid flow are developed. Using the Finite Difference Technique, the coupled systems of equations are solved and the natural frequencies and mode shapes are obtained. The mode shapes are seen to be comparatively flattened in the inner region of the crack and heightened towards the periphery of the disk. Shear fluid loading reduces the natural frequencies and results in a quicker onset of instability. It is observed that the effect of the crack on the vibration characteristics of the disk is mainly a function of the crack location.

In this study, free vibration of a cracked curved beam utilizing analytical, numerical, and experimental methods is investigated. The differential quadrature element method is used to solve the equations of motion numerically. The governing equations are also solved analytically. The crack, which is considered to be open, is modeled as a rotational spring. Furthermore, the effect of curvature on mode shapes is studied. To verify the validity of the proposed methods of determining frequencies and mode shapes, an experimental modal analysis test is conducted on a sample beam having crack with some different depths. This study revealed that the behavior of curved beams toward the mode transition phenomenon depends greatly on the boundary conditions of the beam. Also, both the location and depth of crack have considerable effects on natural frequencies.

The aim of this article is to find an exact analytical solution for free vibration characteristics of thin functionally graded rectangular plates with different boundary conditions. The governing equations of motion are obtained based on the classical plate theory. Using an analytical method, three partial differential equations of motion are reformulated into two new decoupled equations. Based on the Navier solution, a closed-form solution is presented for natural frequencies of functionally graded simply supported rectangular plates. Then, considering Levy-type solution, natural frequencies of functionally graded plates are presented for various boundary conditions. Three mode shapes of a functionally graded rectangular plate are also presented for different boundary conditions. In addition, the effects of aspect ratio, thickness—length ratio, power law index, and boundary conditions on the vibration characteristics of functionally graded rectangular plates are discussed in details. Finally, it has been shown that the effects of in-plane displacements on natural frequencies of functionally graded plates under different boundary conditions have been studied.

In this paper, the differential transformation approach is applied to analyze the free vibration of centrifugally stiffened Timoshenko beam structures. Such structures involve variable coefficients in the governing equations, which in general cannot be solved analytically in closed form. Both the natural frequencies and the mode shapes are obtained using the differential transformation technique. Numerical examples are presented and results are compared with available results in the literature.

This study examines the frequency characteristics of thin rotating disks subjected to axisymmetric nonflatness. The equations of motion used are based on Von Karman’s plate theory. First, the eigenfunctions of the stationary disk problem corresponding to the stress function and transverse displacement are found. These eigenfunctions produce an equation that can be used in Galerkin’s method. The initial nonflatness is assumed to be a linear combination of the eigenfunctions of the transverse displacement of the stationary disk problem. Since the initial nonflatness is assumed to be axisymmetric, only eigenfunctions with no nodal diameters are considered to approximate the initial runout. It is supposed that the disk bending deflection is small compared with disk thickness, so we can ignore the second-order terms in the governing equations corresponding to the transverse displacement and the stress function. After simplifying and discretizing the governing equations of motion, we can obtain a set of coupled equations of motion, which takes the effect of the initial axisymmetric runout into account. These equations are then used to study the effect of the initial runout on the frequency behavior of the stationary disk. It is found that the initial runout increases the frequencies of the oscillations of a stationary disk. In the next step, we study the effect of the initial nonflatness on the critical speed behavior of a spinning disk.
