In this paper, the large amplitude free vibration of a doubly clamped microbeam is considered. The effects of shear deformation and rotary inertia on the large amplitude vibration of the microbeam are investigated. To this end, first Hamilton’s principle is used in deriving the partial differential equation of the microbeam response under the mentioned conditions. Then, implementing the Galerkin’s method the partial differential equation is converted to an ordinary nonlinear differential equation. Finally, the method of multiple scales is used to determine a second order perturbation solution for the obtained ODE. The results show that nonlinearity acts in the direction of increasing the natural frequency of the doubly clamped microbeam. Shear deformation and rotary inertia have significant effects on the large amplitude vibration of thick and short microbeams.

We use several methods to study the nonlinear modes of one-dimensional continuous systems with cubic inertia and geometric nonlinearities. Invariant manifold and perturbation methods applied to the discretized system and the method of multiple scales applied to the partial-differential equation and boundary conditions are discussed and their equivalence is demonstrated. The method of multiple scales is then applied directly to the partial-differential equation and boundary conditions governing several nonlinear beam problems.

The aim of this paper is to present analytical and exact expressions for the frequency and buckling of large amplitude vibration of the symmetrical laminated composite beam (LCB) with simple and clamped end conditions. The equations of motion are derived by using Hamilton's principle. The influences of axial force, Poisson effect, shear deformation, and rotary inertia are taken into account in the formulation. First, the geometric nonlinearity based on the von Karman's assumptions is incorporated in the formulation while retaining the linear behavior for the material. Then, the displacement fields used for the analysis are coupled using the equilibrium equations of the composite beam. Substituting this coupled displacement fields in the potential and kinetic energies and using harmonic balance method, we obtain the ordinary differential equation in time domain. Finally, applying first order of homotopy analysis method (HAM), we get the closed form solutions for the natural frequency and deflection of the LCB. A detailed numerical study is carried out to highlight the influences of amplitude of vibration, shear deformation and rotary inertia, slenderness ratios, and layup in the case of laminates on the natural frequency and buckling load.

Based on the nonlocal elasticity theory, a unified nonlocal, nonlinear, higher-order shear deformable nanoplate model is developed to investigate the size-dependent, large-amplitude, nonlinear vibration of multiferroic composite rectangular nanoplates with different boundary conditions resting on an elastic foundation. By considering a unified displacement vector and using von Kármán’s strain tensor, the strain–displacement components are obtained. Using coupled nonlocal constitutive relations, the coupled ferroelastic, ferroelectric, ferromagnetic, and thermal properties of multiferroic composite materials and small-scale effect are taken into account. The electric and magnetic potential distributions in the nanoplate are calculated via Maxwell’s electromagnetic equations. Furthermore, Hamilton’s principle is utilized to obtain the mathematical formulation associated with the coupled governing equations of motions and boundary conditions. The developed model enables us to consider the effects of rotary inertia and transverse shear deformation without using any shear correction factor. Also, it can be degenerated to the models based on the Kirchhoff and existing shear deformation plate theories. To solve the large-amplitude vibration problem, an efficient multistep numerical solution approach is utilized. Effects of various important parameters such as the type of the plate theory, and parameters of nonlocality and coupled fields on the nonlinear frequency response are investigated.

This papers deals with nonlinear vibrations of non-uniform beams with geometrical nonlinearities such as moderately large curvatures, and inertia nonlinearities such as longitudinal and rotary inertia forces. The nonlinear fourth-order partial-differential equation describing the above nonlinear effects is presented. Using the method of multiple scales, each effect is found by reducing the nonlinear partial-differential equation of motion to two simpler linear partial-differential equations, homogeneous and nonhomogeneous. These equations along with given boundary conditions are analytically solved obtaining so-called zero-and first-order approximations of the beam’s nonlinear frequencies. Since the effect of mid-plane stretching is ignored, any boundary conditions could be considered as long as the supports are not fixed a constant distance apart. Analytical expressions showing the influence of these three nonlinearities on beam’s frequencies are presented up to some constant coefficients. These coefficients depend on the geometry of the beam. This paper can be used to study these influences on frequencies of different classes of beams. However, numerical results are presented for uniform beams. These results show that as beam slenderness increases the effect of these nonlinearities decreases. Also, they show that the most important nonlinear effect is due to moderately large curvature for slender beams.

Transverse non-linear vibration is investigated in principal parametric resonance of an axially accelerating viscoelastic beam. The axial speed is characterized as a simple harmonic variation about a constant mean speed. The material time derivative is used in the viscoelastic constitutive relation. The transverse motion can be governed by a non-linear partial-differential equation or a non-linear integro-partial-differential equation. The method of multiple scales is applied to the governing equations to determine steady-state responses. It is confirmed that the mode uninvolved in the resonance has no effect on the steady-state response. The differential quadrature schemes are developed to verify results via the method of multiple scales. It is demonstrated that the straight equilibrium configuration becomes unstable and a stable steady-state emerges when the axial speed variation frequency is close to twice any linear natural frequency. The results derived for two governing equations are qualitatively the same, but quantitatively different. Numerical simulations are presented to examine the effects of the mean speed and the variation of the amplitude of the axial speed, the dynamic viscosity, the non-linear coefficients, and the boundary constraint stiffness on the instability interval and the steady-state response amplitude.

This paper presents an approach for finding the solution of the partial differential equation of motion of the non-axisymmetrical transverse vibrations of axisymmetrical circular plates of convex parabolical thickness. This approach employed both the method of multiple scales and the factorization method for solving the governing partial differential equation. The solution has been assumed to be harmonic angular-dependent. Using the method of multiple scales, the partial differential equation has been reduced to two simpler partial differential equations which can be analytically solved and which represent two levels of approximation. Solving them, the solution resulted as first-order approximation of the exact solution. Using the factorization method, the first differential equation, homogeneous and consisting of fourth-order spatial-dependent and second-order time-dependent operators, led to a general solution in terms of hypergeometric functions. Along with given boundary conditions, the first differential equation and the second differential equation, which was nonhomogeneous, gave respectively so-called zero-order and first-order approximations of the natural frequencies and mode shapes. Any boundary conditions could be considered. The influence of Poisson’s ratio on the natural frequencies and mode shapes. Any boundary conditions could be considered. The influence of Poisson’s ratio on the natural frequencies and mode shapes could be further studied using the first-order approximations reported here. This approach can be extended to nonlinear, and/or forced vibrations.

The partial differential equation that governs the in-plane motion of a wind turbine blade subject to gravitational loading and which accommodates for aerodynamic loading is developed using the extended Hamilton principle. This partial differential equation includes nonlinear terms due to nonlinear curvature and nonlinear foreshortening, as well as parametric and direct excitation at the frequency of rotation. The equation is reduced using an assumed cantilevered beam mode to produce a single second-order ordinary differential equation (ODE) as an approximation for the case of constant rotation rate. Embedded in this ODE are terms of a nonlinear forced Mathieu equation. The forced Mathieu equation is analyzed for resonances by using the method of multiple scales. Superharmonic and subharmonic resonances occur. The effect of various parameters on the response of the system is demonstrated using the amplitude-frequency curve. A superharmonic resonance persists for the linear system as well.
