The development of DQEM solution of vibration of Timo-shenko beam structures resting on a two-parameter elastic foundation was carried out. The DQEM uses Chebyshev DQ model to discretize the governing differential eigenvalue equation defined on each element, the transition conditions defined on the inter-element boundary of two adjacent elements and the boundary conditions of the beam. Numerical results solved by the developed numerical algorithms are presented. The convergence of the developed DQEM analysis models is efficient.

A 3D boundary element method for the determination of the acoustic eigenfrequencies of car compartments, characterized by a unified treatment of Robin, Dirichlet, and Neumann boundary conditions, is presented. The drawback of frequency-dependent matrices of the eigenvalue problem is overcome by means of the Particular Integral Method. Thus, the standard numerical algorithms for the extraction of eigenvalues can be applied. The numerical study contains both a comparison of numerical results with analytical solutions of a simple problem with different types of boundary conditions and a comparison of numerical results of a large-scale problem with respective numerical results, computed on the basis of the finite element method. In addition, for the latter example, different numerical algorithms for the eigenvalue extraction are examined.

The response of a simply supported semi-infinite Timoshenko beam on an elastic foundation to a moving step load is determined. The response is found from summing the solutions to two mutually complementary sets of governing equations. The first solution is a particular solution to the forced equations of motion. The second solution is a solution to a set of homogeneous equations of motion and nonhomogeneous boundary conditions so formulated as to satisfy the initial and boundary conditions of the actual problem when the two solutions are summed. As a particular solution, the steady-state solution is used which is the motion that would appear stationary to an observer traveling with the load. Steady-state solutions are developed in Part 1 of this article for all load speeds greater than zero. It is shown that a steady-state solution which is identically zero ahead of the load front exists at every load speed, in the sense of generalized functions, including the critical speeds when the load travels at the minimum phase velocity of propagating harmonic waves and the sonic speeds. The solution to the homogeneous equations of motion is developed in Part 2 where the two solutions in question are summed and numerical results are presented as well.
