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.

In the present research electro-mechanical bending behavior of sandwich nanoplate with functionally graded porous core and piezoelectric face sheets is carried out. Vlasov’s model foundation is utilized to model the silica Aerogel foundation. Two functions are considered for nonuniform variation of material properties of the core layer along the thickness direction such as Young’s modulus, shear modulus, and density. The governing equations are deduced from Hamilton’s principle based on sinusoidal shear and normal deformation theory. In order to solve seven governing equations, an iterative technique is accomplished. After all, deflection and stresses are verified with corresponding literatures. Eventually, the numerical results reveal that applied voltage, plate aspect ratio, thickness ratio, nonlocal parameter, porosity index, Young’s modulus, and height of silica Aerogel foundation have substantial effects on the electro-mechanical bending response of functionally graded porous sandwich nanoplate.

Location of delamination is a triggering parameter for structural instability of laminated composites. In this paper, a finite element method is employed to determine the effects of location of delamination on free vibration characteristics of graphite-epoxy cross-ply composite pre-twisted shallow conical shells. The generalized dynamic equilibrium equation is derived from Lagrange's equation of motion neglecting Coriolis effect for moderate rotational speeds. The formulation is exercised by using an eight noded isoparametric plate bending element based on Mindlin's theory. Multi-point constraint algorithm is utilized to ensure the compatibility of deformation and equilibrium of resultant forces and moments at the delamination crack front. The standard eigen value problem is solved by applying the QR iteration algorithm. Finite element codes are developed to obtain the numerical results concerning the effects of location of delamination, twist angle and rotational speed on the natural frequencies of cross-ply composite shallow conical shells. The mode shapes are also depicted for a typical laminate configuration. Numerical results obtained from parametric studies of both symmetric and anti-symmetric cross-ply laminates are the first known non-dimensional natural frequencies for the type of analyses carried out here.

Finite element procedure is employed to analyze the free vibration characteristics of rotating functionally graded carbon nanotubes reinforced composite conical shell with pretwist under the thermal environment. In this paper, four types of carbon nanotube grading are considered, wherein the distribution of carbon nanotubes are made through the thickness direction of the conical shell. An eight-noded isoparametric shell element is used in the present formulation to model the panel based on the first-order shear deformation theory. For moderate rotational speeds, the generalized dynamic equilibrium equation is derived from Lagrange’s equation of motion, neglecting the Coriolis effect. The finite element code is developed to investigate the effect of twist angle, temperature, aspect ratio, and rotational speed on natural frequencies. The mode shapes of a carbon nanotube reinforced functionally graded conical shell at different twist angles and rotational speeds are also presented.

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.

Free vibration analysis of a single edge cracked multi-layered symmetric sandwich stepped Timoshenko beams, made of functionally graded materials, is studied using finite element method and linear elastic fracture mechanic theory. The cantilever functionally graded beam consists of 50 layers, assumed that the second stage of the beam (step part) is created by machining. Thus, providing the material continuity between the two beam stages. It is assumed that material properties vary continuously, along the thickness direction according to the exponential and power laws. A developed MATLAB code is used to find the natural frequencies of three types of the stepped beam, concluding a good agreement with the known data from the literature, supported also by ANSYS software in data verification. In the study, the effects of the crack location, crack depth, power law gradient index, different material distributions, different stepped length, different cross-sectional geometries on natural frequencies and mode shapes are analysed in detail.

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.

Abstract Axisymmetric free vibration of moderately thick polar orthotropic hemispherical shells are studied under the various boundary conditions of sliding, guided pin, clamped and hinged edges. Based on the improved linear elastic shell theory with the transverse shear strain and rotatory inertia taken into account, the dynamic equilibrium equations are formulated and transformed into the displacement form in terms of mid-surface meridian and radial displacements and parallel circle cross-section rotation. These partial differential equations are solved by the Galerkin method using proper Legendre polynomials as admissible displacement functions with the aid of the orthogonality and a number of special integral relations. Numerical results of the present theory compare well with existing data, which is available only in the isotropic theories. Good convergence is obtained for natural frequencies and mode shapes. Study of the effects of thickness and modulus ratio reveals higher frequencies for the thicker and/or stiffer shells with E\ oriented parallel to the meridians. Ranking of the natural frequencies descends in the order of guided pins, sliding, clamped and hinged edges in general. Also seen are the effects of transverse shear strain from the mode shapes with clamped and sliding edges on the slant. For the guided pin and sliding edges, frequencies increase fast as thickness increases so that new fundamental modes are generated in filling up the “frequency gap”. These are the new discoveries in the field of anisotropic shells, as a result of polar orthotropy of shell material and construction.
