The nonlinear free and forced vibration of the composite beams embedded with shape memory alloy (SMA) fibers are investigated based on first-order shear deformation beam theory and the von Kármán type nonlinear strain-displacement equation. A thermomechanical constitutive equation of SMA proposed by Brinson is used to calculate the recovery stress of the constrained SMA fibers. The equations of motion are derived by using Hamilton’s principle. The approximate solution is obtained for vibration analysis of the composite beams based on the Galerkin approach. The parametric study is carried out to display the effect of the actuation temperature, the volume fraction, the initial strain of SMA fibers, and the length-to-thickness ratio. The shear deformation is shown to have a significant contribution to nonlinear vibration behavior of the composite beams with SMA fibers.

The aim of this paper is to investigate the free vibration of hybrid composite moving beams embedded with shape memory alloy (SMA) fibers. The nonlinear equations of motion are derived based on the Euler–Bernoulli beam theory in conjunction with the von Karman type of nonlinearity in strain–displacement relations via the extended Hamilton principle. Also, the recovery stress induced by the SMA fibers is computed by applying the one-dimensional Brinson model and Reuss scheme. Then, an analytical approach in used to solve the nonlinear equation of motion for the simply supported shape memory alloy hybrid composite (SMAHC) moving beams. Based on the analytical solution, several parametric studies are presented to show the effects of various parameters such as volume fraction, pre-strain in the SMA fibers, temperature rise and velocity on the fundamental frequency of the SMAHC moving beams. Due to the lack of similar results in the specialized literature on the subject of interest, this paper is likely to fill a gap in the state of the art of the related research.

Reinforcing a composite beam with shape memory alloy wires may have several benefits such as reduction of buckling risks or elimination of unwanted oscillations. In this paper, the vibration damping of a typical shape memory alloy-reinforced composite or hybrid beam is explored. To formulate the thermo-mechanical behavior of embedded shape memory alloy wires, three-dimensional Panico–Brinson model is employed and tailored to one-dimensional model. This material model can simulate pseudo-elastic and ferro-elastic forms of martensite transformations which occurs in cyclic loadings. Besides, unlike the former studies which rely on classical beam theories, the first-order shear deformation beam theory is used to obtain more accurate estimations of shape memory alloy-wire hysteresis loops and their decaying characteristics. In order to explore the effects of a transient concentrated load applied in the middle of a beam, the governing equations are developed and discretized by differential quadrature–integral quadrature combined method. Incremental time marching solution of the problem is accomplished using the Newmark technique. Results are assessed by comparing with available literature. Considering different types of boundary conditions, the influence of pseudo-elastic and ferro-elastic hysteresis loops on the material damping effects, shape memory alloy volume fraction, and resonance phenomenon is studied in detail.

The flutter and thermal buckling behavior of laminated composite panels embedded with shape memory alloy (SMA) wires are studied in this research. The classical plate theory and nonlinear von-Karman strain-displacement relation are employed to investigate the aeroelastic behavior of the smart laminated panel. The thermodynamic behaviors of SMA wires are simulated based on one-dimensional Brinson SMA model. The aerodynamic pressure on the panel is described by the nonlinear piston theory. Nonlinear governing partial differential equations of motion are derived for the panel via the Hamilton principle. The effects of ply angle of the composite panel, SMA layer location and orientation, SMA wires temperature, volume fraction and prestrain on the buckling, flutter boundary, and amplitude of limit cycle oscillation of the panel are analyzed in detail.

The effect of NiTi alloy long wires on the viscoelastic behavior of epoxy resin was investigated by utilizing the dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and a novel micromechanical model. The present model is capable of predicting the viscoelastic properties of the shape-memory-alloy (SMA) reinforced polymer as a function of the SMA volume fraction, initial martensite volume fraction, pre-strain level in wires, and the temperature variations. The model was verified by conducting experiments. Good agreement between the theoretical and experimental results was achieved. A parametric study was also performed to investigate the effect of SMA parameters. According to the results, by the addition of a small volume fraction of SMA, the storage modulus of the composite increases significantly, especially at higher temperatures. Moreover, applying a 4% pre-strain caused a 10% increase in the maximum value of the loss factor of the SMA reinforced epoxy in comparison with the 0% pre-strained SMA reinforced epoxy.

In this article, vibration behavior of a micro cylindrical sandwich panel with foam core and reinforced graphene platelet composite layers on the top and bottom resting on elastic foundation based on modified couple stress theory is investigated. Hamilton’s principle is used to determine the governing equations of motion. These equations are solved by Navier’s method to obtain the natural frequencies. The results are compared with the extracted results by the other literatures. The effects of different parameters such as temperature change, volume fraction of graphene platelet, length to radius ratio, and the elastic foundation on the natural frequencies have been carried out. Also, the effects of reinforced materials for layers is discussed and compared with unreinforced composites layers. Sandwich structures are wildly used in different applications such as spacecraft, aeronautical, pressurized gas tanks, boilers, aircraft fuselage, marines, and civil structures, and these cases need high strength and low weight. The present work is a theoretical background for more explorations and further experimental researchers in the field of cylindrical reinforced panels.

In this paper, epoxy matrix composite beams with embedded TiNi (SMA: Shape Memory Alloy) fiber are applied to enhance the strength and fracture toughness of the machinery components. It is also well known that SMA shows the remarkable changes of stiffness and damping ratio between martensite at lower temperature and austenite at high temperature. A shape recovery force is associated with inverse phase transformation of SMA. The effects of heating with current and pre-strain in TiNi fiber of SMA on vibration characteristics are experimentally investigated. The active vibration control is achieved by controlling the current and pre-strain.

Shape memory alloy (SMA) wires were embedded within laminated composite plates to take advantage of the shape memory effect property of the SMA in improving post-buckling behavior of composite plates. A nonlinear finite element formulation was developed for this study. The plate-bending formulation used in this study was developed based on the first order shear deformation theory, where the von Karman's nonlinear moderate strain terms were added to the strain equations. The effect of the SMA was captured by adding recovery stress term in the constitutive equation of the SMA composite plates. Values of the recovery stress of the SMA were determined using Brinson's model. Using the principle of virtual work and the total Lagrangian approach, the final finite element nonlinear governing equation for the post-buckling of SMA composite plates was derived. Buckling and post-buckling analyses were then conducted on the symmetric angle-ply and cross-ply SMA composite plates. The effect of several parameters such as the activation temperature, volume fraction, and the initial strain of the SMA on the post-buckling behavior of the SMA composite plates were studied. It was found that significant improvements in the post-buckling behavior for composite plates can be attained.

This article aims at developing a semi-analytic approach for studying the free and forced vibrations of a pseudoelastically behaving shape memory alloy beam. Based on the Euler–Bernoulli beam theory, equations of motion were derived through Hamilton principle, and the obtained partial differential equations were decomposed by applying the Galerkin approach and were solved using Newmark integration method. A three-dimensional phenomenological model of shape memory alloy, which is capable of identifying the main properties of the shape memory alloy, was employed to model the behavior of the shape memory alloy beam. A closed-form numerical algorithm was introduced to simulate the governing kinetic equations of the shape memory alloy beam coupled with transformation strain. The presented novel solution approach is simple, flexible, and time-saving. Stability analysis was performed using phase state trajectories to show dynamic characteristics of the shape memory alloy beam. Due to hysteric behavior of the shape memory alloy, energy dissipation was clearly observed in early stages of the free vibration and within the transient regions of the forced vibration. The numerical results showed that, due to the hysteric induced damping effect, the vibration amplitude is smaller in comparison to an equivalent elastic beam, and consequently, the shape memory alloy beam exhibits more stable behavior at the resonant frequencies. This property can potentially find applications in energy damping applications and vibration control. Moreover, an interesting phenomenon called jumping was observed in the results of frequency response analysis. At jumping frequency, the amplitude of the frequency response has two distinct levels. This jumping frequency is as a result of the hysteresis behavior of the shape memory alloy, and it is a function of the exciting amplitude.
